FORMULA
G.f.: Product_{n>=1} (1 - x^(3*n))/(1 - x^n)^2.
a(n) ~ sqrt(5/3)*exp(sqrt(10*n)*Pi/3)/(12*n). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Nov 26 2016
Expansion of q^(-1/24) * eta(q^3) / eta(q)^2 in powers of q. - Michael Somos, Nov 25 2019
G.f.: 1/Product_{n > = 1} ( 1 - x^(n/gcd(n,k)) ) for k = 3. Cf. A000041 (k = 1), A015128 (k = 2), A298311 (k = 4) and A160461 (k = 5). - Peter Bala, Nov 17 2020
EXAMPLE
G.f. = 1 + 2*x + 5*x^2 + 9*x^3 + 18*x^4 + 31*x^5 + 54*x^6 + ...
G.f. = q + 2*q^25 + 5*q^49 + 9*q^73 + 18*q^97 + 31*q^121 + 54*q^145 + ... - Michael Somos, Nov 25 2019
