FORMULA

a(n) = number of partitions of n with even rank minus number with odd rank. The rank of a partition is its largest part minus the number of parts.

G.f.: 1+Sum_{n>0} (q^(n^2)/Product_{i=1..n}(1+q^i)^2) = (1+4*Sum_{n>0} (-1)^n*q^(n*(3*n+1)/2)/(1+q^n))/Product_{i>0}(1-q^i).

EXAMPLE

1 + q - 2*q^2 + 3*q^3 - 3*q^4 + 3*q^5 - 5*q^6 + 7*q^7 - 6*q^8 + 6*q^9 + ...

MAPLE

series(1+4*add( (-1)^n*q^(n*(3*n+1)/2)/(1+q^n), n=1..71), q, 71)/series(mul(1-q^i, i=1..71), q, 71);

MATHEMATICA

Series[(1+4Sum[(-1)^n q^(n(3n+1)/2)/(1+q^n), {n, 1, 10}])/Sum[(-1)^n q^(n(3n+1)/2), {n, -8, 8}], {q, 0, 100}]

PROGRAM

(PARI) {a(n) = if( n<0, 0, polcoeff( sum(k=1, sqrtint(n), x^k^2 / prod(i=1, k, 1 + x^i, 1 + x * O(x^(n - k^2)))^2, 1), n))} /* Michael Somos Sep 02 2007 */
