Formula

Expansion of q^(-7/12) * (eta(q) * eta(q^4)^2 / eta(q^2))^2 in powers of q.

Euler transform of period 4 sequence [ -2, 0, -2, -4, ...].

G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (576 t)) = 288 (t/i)^2 g(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t) and g() is the g.f. for A187149.

Example

G.f. = 1 - 2*x + x^2 - 2*x^3 + 4*x^5 + x^6 + 2*x^7 - 5*x^8 - 5*x^10 + ...
G.f. = q^7 - 2*q^19 + q^31 - 2*q^43 + 4*q^67 + q^79 + 2*q^91 - 5*q^103 + ...
