The coefficient of 1/x^n in Sum_{m>=0} (x^m + 1/x^m)^m equals a(n) for n > 0, while the constant term in the sum increases without limit.
LINKS
FORMULA
a(4*n + 2) = 0 for n >= 0.
a(n) = [x^n] Sum_{m>=0} x^(m^2) * (1 + 1/x^(2*m))^m, for n > 0.
EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = x + 3*x^3 + x^4 + 10*x^5 + 35*x^7 + 4*x^8 + 127*x^9 + 462*x^11 + 15*x^12 + 1716*x^13 + 6440*x^15 + 57*x^16 + 24310*x^17 + 92378*x^19 + 210*x^20 + 352737*x^21 + 1352078*x^23 + 798*x^24 + 5200301*x^25 + ...
