Comments

The authors of the article have informed me that there is a typo in the published g.f. - the factor (1+q^(4*n-2)) should be squared. When this is done, we get the sequence A085261. In short, this is an erroneous version of A085261.

Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).
