COMMENT

Number of sublattices of Z X Z of index n that are similar to Z X Z; number of (principal) ideals of Z[i] of norm n.

G.f. A(x) satisfies 0=f(A(x),A(x^2),A(x^4)) where f(u,v,w)=(u-v)^2-(v-w)(4w+1). - Michael Somos, Jul 19 2004

FORMULA

Dirichlet series: (1-2^(-s))^(-1)*Product (1-p^(-s))^(-2) (p=1 mod 4) * Product (1-p^(-2s))^(-1) (p=3 mod 4) = Dedekind eta-function of Z[ i ].

Coefficients in expansion of Dirichlet series Product_p (1-(Kronecker(m, p)+1)*p^(-s)+Kronecker(m, p)*p^(-2s))^(-1) for m = -16.

If n=2^k*u*v, where u is product of primes 4m+1, v is product of primes 4m+3, then a(n)=0 unless v is a square, in which case a(n) = number of divisors of u (Jacobi).

Multiplicative with a(p^e) = 1 if p = 2; e+1 if p == 1 (mod 4); (e+1) mod 2 if p == 3 (mod 4).. - David W. Wilson, Sep 01, 2001

G.f.: Sum((-1)^floor(n/2)*x^((n^2+n)/2)/(1+(-x)^n), n=1..infinity). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)Eunet.yu), Sep 15 2004

Expansion of (eta(q^2)^10/(eta(q)eta(q^4))^4 -1)/4 in powers of q.

G.f.: Sum_{k>0} x^k/(1+x^(2k)) = Sum_{k>0} -(-1)^k x^(2k-1)/(1-x^(2k-1)). - Michael Somos Aug 17 2005

a(4n+3)=a(9n+3)=a(9n+6)=0. a(9n)=a(2n)=a(n). - Michael Somos Nov 01 2006

EXAMPLE

4=2^2, so a(4)=1; 5=1^2+2^2=2^2+1^2, so a(5)=2.
