FORMULA
Expansion of (eta(q)^2 * eta(q^4))^4 in powers of q.
Euler transform of period 4 sequence [-8, -8, -8, -12, ...].
G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (8 t)) = 2^14 (t/i)^6 g(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t) and g() is the g.f. for A225872.
G.f.: x * (Product_{k>0} (1 - x^k)^2 * (1 - x^(4*k)))^4.
EXAMPLE
G.f. = q - 8*q^2 + 20*q^3 - 74*q^5 + 96*q^6 - 24*q^7 + 157*q^9 - 432*q^10 + ...
