COMMENTS
The reason for having multiple versions of these McKay-Thompson series is that each one is a quotient of Dedekind eta-functions, differing only in their constant terms. Each one is equally important.
Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).
Cubic AGM theta functions: a(q) (see A004016), b(q) (A005928), c(q) (A005882).

FORMULA
Expansion of c(q) * b(q^4) / (b(q) * c(q^4)) in powers of q where b(), c() are cubic AGM theta functions.
Expansion of (1/q) * ((chi(-q^3) * chi(-q^6)) / (chi(-q) * chi(-q^3)))^4 in powers of q where chi() is a Ramanujan theta function.
Expansion of (eta(q^3) * eta(q^4) / (eta(q) * eta(q^12)))^4 in powers of q.
Euler transform of period 12 sequence [ 4, 4, 0, 0, 4, 0, 4, 0, 0, 4, 4, 0, ...].
G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (12 t)) = f(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t).
Convolution square of A058578. a(n) = A058486(n) unless n=0.
a(n) = -(-1)^n * A193522(n). - Michael Somos, Sep 05 2015
a(n) ~ exp(2*Pi*sqrt(n/3)) / (2 * 3^(1/4) * n^(3/4)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Sep 10 2015
