Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).
Number 58 of the 74 eta-quotients listed in Table I of Martin (1996). - Michael Somos, Mar 16 2012
The weight 2 eta-quotient newform eta^8(8*z) / (eta^2(4*z)*eta^2(16*z)) appears in Theorem 2 of the Martin and Ono link in the row with conductor 64 for the strong Weil curve y^2 = x^3 - 4*x. For N(p), the number of solutions modulo primes for this elliptic curve and for y^2 = x^3 + x, see A095978. The non-vanishing p-defects p - N(p) for these two curves are given in A267859. - Wolfdieter Lang, May 26 2016

Coefficients of L-series for elliptic curve "64a4": y^2 = x^3 + x.
Expansion of f(q)^2 * f(-q^2)^2 = psi(-q)^2 * phi(q)^2 = chi(q)^2 * f(-q^2)^4 = psi(q)^2 * phi(-q^2)^2 = f(q)^4 / chi(q)^2 = f(q)^6 / phi(q)^2 = f(-q^2)^6 / psi(-q)^2 = phi(q)^4 / chi(q)^6 = chi(q)^6 * psi(-q)^4 = f(q)^3 * psi(-q) = f(-q^2)^3 * phi(q) in powers of q where phi(), psi(), chi(), f() are Ramanujan theta functions.
Euler transform of period 4 sequence [2, -6, 2, -4, ...].
G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (64 t)) = 64 (t/i)^2 f(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t).
a(n) = b(4*n + 1) where b() is multiplicative with b(2^e) = 0^e, b(p^e) = (1 + (-1)^e)/2 * (-p)^(e/2) if p == 3 (mod 4), b(p^e) = b(p) * b(p^(e-1)) - p * b(p^(e-2)) if p == 1 (mod 4) with b(p) = 2 * x * (-1)^((x-1)/2) where p = x^2 + 4 * y^2.
G.f.: (Product_{k>0} (1 - x^(2*k))^2 * (1 + x^(2*k - 1)))^2.
a(n) = (-1)^n * A002171(n). a(9*n + 2) = -3 * a(n), a(9*n + 5) = a(9*n + 8) = 0. Convolution square of A138514.
G.f. for{b(n)}:
eta^8(8*z)/(eta^2(4*z)*eta^2(16*z)) with q = exp(2*Pi*i*z)), Im(z) > 0 (see a comment on the Martin-Ono link above). - Wolfdieter Lang, May 27 2016
