FORMULA
Expansion of q^(-1/8) * eta(q^2)^19 / (eta(q) * eta(q^4))^7 in powers of q.
Euler transform of period 4 sequence [ 7, -12, 7, -5, ...].
G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (256 t)) = 1024 (t/i)^(5/2) f(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t).
a(3*n + 2) = 16 * A258770(n).
Convolution square is A209942.
Empirical: Sum_{n>=0} a(n) / exp(n*Pi) = (1/2) * exp(Pi / 8) * Pi^(5/4) * 2^(1/4) / Gamma(3/4)^5 = A388894. - Simon Plouffe, Sep 21 2025
EXAMPLE
G.f. = 1 + 7*x + 16*x^2 + 7*x^3 - 16*x^4 + 17*x^6 - 48*x^7 - 64*x^8 + ...
G.f. = q + 7*q^9 + 16*q^17 + 7*q^25 - 16*q^33 + 17*q^49 - 48*q^57 + ...
