%N Expansion of (b(q^3) - b(q)) / 3 in powers of q where b() is a cubic AGM theta function.

%C Cubic AGM theta functions: a(q) (see A004016), b(q) (A005928), c(q) (A005882).

%C Rogers and Zudilin (2011) page 6: "This identity can be verified by eliminating b(q) with b(q^{1/3}) - b(q) = 3c(q^3) - c(q)."

%C The zeros of the g.f. A(q) where q = exp(2 Pi i t) are of the form t = (m/2 + sqrt(-3)/18) / n where m is an odd integer and n is in A004611. For example, (1/2 + sqrt(-3)/18) / 1, (1/2 + sqrt(-3)/18) / 7, (5/2 + sqrt(-3)/18) / 13.
