FORMULA
Expansion of (eta(q^2)^5 * eta(q^16)^2 / (eta(q)^2 * eta(q^8)^5))^2 in powers of q.
Euler transform of period 16 sequence [ 4, -6, 4, -6, 4, -6, 4, 4, 4, -6, 4, -6, 4, -6, 4, 0, ...].
a(4*n) = 0 unless n=0. a(4*n + 3) = 0. a(4*n + 1) = 4 * A079006(n). a(4*n + 2) = 4 * A001938(n).
Convolution square of A208274.
Empirical: Sum{n>=0} a(n)/exp(Pi*n) = 40 + 28*sqrt(2) - 8*sqrt(48+34*sqrt(2)). - Simon Plouffe, Mar 02 2021
EXAMPLE
1 + 4*q + 4*q^2 - 8*q^5 - 16*q^6 + 20*q^9 + 56*q^10 - 40*q^13 - 160*q^14 + ...
