FORMULA

a(n) is multiplicative with a(2^e) = -1 if e>0, a(p^e) = ((p^2)^(e+1) - 1) / (p^2 - 1) if p == 1 (mod 4), a(p^e) = ((-p^2)^(e+1) - 1) / ( -p^2 - 1) if p == 3 (mod 4).

a(2*n) = (-1)^n * a(n).

G.f.: Sum_{k>0} -(-1)^k * (2*k-1)^2 * x^(2*k-1) / (1 + x^(2*k-1)).

EXAMPLE

q - q^2 - 8*q^3 - q^4 + 26*q^5 + 8*q^6 - 48*q^7 - q^8 + 73*q^9 + ...

PROGRAM

(PARI) {a(n) = if( n<1, 0, sumdiv(n, d, d^2 * kronecker(-4, d) * -(-1)^(n/d)))}

(PARI) {a(n) = local(A); if( n<0, 0, A = x * O(x^n); polcoeff( ((eta(x^2 + A)^9 / (eta(x + A)^2 * eta(x^4 + A)^4))^2 - 1) / 4, n))}

CROSSREFS

Cf. A138504(n) = 4 * a(n).
