FORMULA
Expansion of phi(-x) * f(-x^4) = psi(-x) * f(-x) = psi(-x)^2 * chi(-x^2) = f(-x)^2 / chi(-x^2) in powers of x where phi(), psi(), chi(), f() are Ramanujan theta functions.
Euler transform of period 4 sequence [ -2, -1, -2, -2, ...].
a(n) = (-1)^(n / 2) * b(6*n + 1) where b() is multiplicative with b(2^e) = b(3^e) = 0^e, b(p^e) = (1 + (-1)^e) / 2 if p == 5 (mod 8) or p == 23 (mod 24), b(p^e) = (-1)^(e/2) * (1 + (-1)^e) / 2 if p == 3 (mod 8) or p == 17 (mod 24) and p>3, b(p^e) = (e+1) * s^e if p == 1, 7 (mod 24) where p = x^2 + 6*y^2 and s = Kronecker(12, x) * (-1)^((p-1) / 12).
G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (576 t)) = 4608^(1/2) (t/i) g(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t) and g(t) is the g.f. for A143379.
a(4*n + 2) = a(4*n + 3) = 0.
G.f.: Product_{k>0} (1 - x^k)^2 * (1 + x^(2*k)).
a(n) = (-1)^n * A143380(n). a(4*n) = A143378(n). a(4*n + 1) = -2 * A143379(n). - Michael Somos, Apr 07 2015

G.f. = q - 2*q^7 + q^25 + 2*q^31 - 3*q^49 - 2*q^73 + 2*q^79 + 2*q^97 + 2*q^103 + ...
