Compare to the g.f. of A004018 given by the Lambert series identity:
1 + 4*Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n*x^(2*n+1)/(1 - x^(2*n+1)) = (1 + 2*Sum_{n>=1} x^(n^2))^2.
LINKS
FORMULA
G.f.: 1 + 4*Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n*Fibonacci(2*n+1)*x^(2*n+1) / (1 - Lucas(2*n+1)*x^(2*n+1) - x^(4*n+2)), where Lucas(n) = A000204(n).
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + 4*x + 4*x^2 + 12*x^4 + 40*x^5 + 84*x^8 + 136*x^9 + 440*x^10 +...
Compare the g.f to the square of the Jacobi theta_3 series:
theta_3(x)^2 = 1 + 4*x + 4*x^2 + 4*x^4 + 8*x^5 + 4*x^8 + 4*x^9 + 8*x^10 +...+ A004018(n)*x^n +...
The g.f. equals the sum:
A(x) = 1 + 4*x/(1-x-x^2) - 4*2*x^3/(1-4*x^3-x^6) + 4*5*x^5/(1-11*x^5-x^10) - 4*13*x^7/(1-29*x^7-x^14) + 4*34*x^9/(1-76*x^9-x^18) - 4*89*x^11/(1-199*x^11-x^22) + 4*233*x^13/(1-521*x^13-x^26) - 4*610*x^15/(1-1364*x^15-x^30) +...
which involves odd-indexed Fibonacci and Lucas numbers.
