FORMULA
Expansion of 1 + 2 * q * chi(q^3) / chi(q^9)^3 in powers of q where chi() is a Ramanujan theta function.
Expansion of 1 - 2 * c(q^6) / c(-q^3) in powers of q where c() is a cubic AGM theta function.
Expansion of eta(q^2)^5 * eta(q^9)^2 * eta(q^36)^2 / (eta(q)^2 * eta(q^4)^2 * eta(q^18)^5) in powers of q.
Euler transform of period 36 sequence [ 2, -3, 2, -1, 2, -3, 2, -1, 0, -3, 2, -1, 2, -3, 2, -1, 2, 0, 2, -1, 2, -3, 2, -1, 2, -3, 0, -1, 2, -3, 2, -1, 2, -3, 2, 0, ...].
G.f. A(x) satisfies 0 = f(A(x), A(x^3)) where f(u, v) = (u - v)^3 - u * (3 - u) * (v - 1) * (3 - 2*u + u*v).
G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (36 t)) = 3 g(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t) and g() is the g.f. for A261988. - Michael Somos, Sep 07 2015
G.f.: (1 + 2 * Sum_{k>0} x^k^2) / (1 + 2 * Sum_{k>0} x^(9*k^2)).
G.f.: Product_{k>0} (1 - x^(2*k)) * (1 + x^(2*k-1))^2 / ((1 - x^(18*k)) * (1 + x^(18*k-9))^2).
a(3*n) = 0 unless n=0. a(3*n + 2) = 0. a(3*n + 1) = 2 * A128111(n).
Empirical : sum(exp(-Pi/3)^(n-1)*a(n),n=1..infinity) = sqrt(3). Simon Plouffe, Feb. 20, 2011.
