COMMENTS
When multiplied by 16, this is the q-expansion of the automorphic function lambda (see A115977) [see Erdelyi].
Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).

FORMULA
Expansion of elliptic lambda / 16 = m / 16 = (k / 4)^2 in powers of the nome q.
Expansion of q * (psi(q) / phi(q))^8 = q * (psi(q^2) / psi(q))^8 = q * (psi(-q) / phi(-q^2))^8 = q * (chi(-q) / chi(-q^2)^2)^8 = q / (chi(q) * chi(-q^2))^8 = q / (chi(-q) * chi(q)^2)^8 = q * (psi(q^2) / phi(q))^4 = q * (f(-q^4) / f(q))^8 in powers of q where phi(), psi(), chi(), f() are Ramanujan theta functions. - Michael Somos, Jun 13 2011
Expansion of eta(q)^8 * eta(q^4)^16 / eta(q^2)^24 in powers of q.
Euler transform of period 4 sequence [-8, 16, -8, 0, ...].
G.f. A(x) satisfies 0 = f(A(x), A(x^2)) where f(u, v) = u^2 - v + 16*u*v - 32*u^2*v + 256*(u*v)^2. - Michael Somos, Mar 19 2004
G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (4 t)) = (1 / 16) g(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t) and g() is the g.f. for A128692. - Michael Somos, May 10 2014
G.f.: q * Product( (1 + q^(2*n)) / (1 + q^(2*n - 1)), n=1..inf )^8.
a(n) ~ (-1)^(n+1) * exp(2*Pi*sqrt(n))/(512*n^(3/4)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jul 10 2016
Empirical: Sum_{n>=0} a(n)/exp(2*Pi*n) = 17/16 - 3*sqrt(2)/4, verified to 27000 digits (10000 terms). - Simon Plouffe, Mar 01 2021
EXAMPLE
G.f. = q - 8*q^2 + 44*q^3 - 192*q^4 + 718*q^5 - 2400*q^6 + 7352*q^7 - 20992*q^8 + ...

CROSSREFS
If initial 0 is omitted and sequence begins with a(0) = 1, then this is the convolution of A001938 with itself. G.f.s are related by a(x)=x*A001938(x)^2. Reversion of A005797.
