COMMENTS
This sequence convolved with A000217 (without initial term 0) yields A164680.
See A164680 for similar convolutions.
A165188 convolved with A000217 yields sequence A164680. This is to be expected since A000217 can be associated with partition 1+1+1, A164680 with partition 1+1+1+2+2+2+3 and A165188 with partition 2+2+2+3 by observing their unreduced generating functions and verified by generating the sequences by converting the partitions into finite sequences and using Euler's Transform. Thus partition 1+1+1 yields the finite sequence (3); partition 2+2+2+3 yields the finite sequence (0,3,1); and, when combined, partition 1+1+1+2+2+2+3 yields (3,3,1). - Alford Arnold, Sep 24 2009

a(n) = -a(-7 - n) for all n in Z.
a(n+3) - a(n) = 0 if n odd else (n+6) * (n+4) / 8. - Michael Somos, Feb 01 2015
a(2*n + 1) = a(2*n + 4) = A014125(n) for all n in Z. - Michael Somos, Feb 01 2015
EXAMPLE
A014125 begins 1,3,6,11,18,27,..., thus this sequence begins 1,0,3,1,6,3,11,6,18,11,27,18,... .
G.f. = x + 3*x^3 + x^4 + 6*x^5 + 3*x^6 + 11*x^7 + 6*x^8 + 18*x^9 + 11*x^10 + ...
