COMMENTS
Analog to Euler's identity: Product_{n>=1} (1+x^n) = Product_{n>=1} 1/(1-x^(2*n-1)), which is the g.f. for the number of partitions of distinct parts.

FORMULA
G.f.: Product_{n>=1} 1/(1 - A002203(2*n-1)*x^(2*n-1) + (-1)^n*x^(4*n-2)).
G.f.: exp( Sum_{n>=1} A000593(n) * A002203(n) * x^n/n ) where A000593(n) = sum of odd divisors of n.
a(n) = (1/n)*Sum_{k=1..n} A000593(k) * A002203(k)*a(n-k) for n>0, with a(0) = 1.
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 5*x^2 + 26*x^3 + 57*x^4 + 222*x^5 + 698*x^6 +...
where A(x) = (1+2*x-x^2) * (1+6*x^2+x^4) * (1+14*x^3-x^6) * (1+34*x^4+x^8) * (1+82*x^5-x^10) * (1+198*x^6+x^12) *...* (1 + A002203(n)*x^n + (-1)^n*x^(2*n)) *...
and 1/A(x) = (1-2*x-x^2) * (1-14*x^3-x^6) * (1-82*x^5-x^10) * (1-478*x^7-x^14) * (1-2786*x^9-x^18) * (1-16238*x^11-x^22) *...* (1 - A002203(2*n-1)*x^(2*n-1) + (-1)^n*x^(4*n-2)) *...
Also, the logarithm of the g.f. equals the series:
log(A(x)) = 1*2*x + 1*6*x^2/2 + 4*14*x^3/3 + 1*34*x^4/4 + 6*82*x^5/5 + 4*198*x^6/6 + 8*478*x^7/7 + 1*1154*x^8/8 +...+ A000593(n)*A002203(n)*x^n/n +...
The companion Pell numbers (starting at offset 1) begin:
A002203 = [2,6,14,34,82,198,478,1154,2786,6726,16238,...]
and form the logarithm of a g.f. for Pell numbers:
log(1/(1-2*x-x^2)) = 2*x + 6*x^2/2 + 14*x^3/3 + 34*x^4/4 + 82*x^5/5 +...
