From Peter Bala, Apr 18 2023: (Start)
The Gauss congruences a(n*p^k) == a(n*p^(k-1)) (mod p^k) hold for all primes p and all positive integers n and k.
Conjecture: the supercongruence a(p) == 2*p + 2 (mod p^2) holds for all primes p. Cf. A291697. (End)

FORMULA
a(n) ~ c * d^n / sqrt(n), where d = 7.862983395705905261519347909953827161057584... and c = 0.299856802806668079413694689903953367699319...
a(n) = [x^n] 1/theta_4(x)^n, where theta_4() is the Jacobi theta function. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Nov 03 2017
