FORMULA

Euler transform of period 4 sequence [4,-8,4,0,...]. - Michael Somos Mar 18 2004

eta(4z)^12/(eta(2z)^4*eta(8z)^8) = 1/q + 4q + 2q^3 - 8q^5 - q^7 + 20q^9 - ... Also eta(2z)^4/eta(8z)^4.

Given g.f. A(x), then B(x)=A(x^2)/x satisfies 0=f(B(x), B(x^2)) where f(u, v)=16+8v+v^2-u^2*v - Michael Somos Mar 18 2004

EXAMPLE

T8E = 1/q +4*q +2*q^3 -8*q^5 -q^7 +20*q^9 -2*q^11 -40*q^13 +...

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=if(n<0, 0, X=x+x*O(x^n); polcoeff((eta(X^2)^3/eta(X)/eta(X^4)^2)^4, n))

(PARI) a(n)=local(A, m); if(n<0, 0, A=1+O(x); m=1; while(m<=n, m*=2; A=subst(A, x, x^2); A=(4*x+A)/sqrt(A)); polcoeff(A, n))
