FORMULA

Expansion of q^(-1/3) * (eta(q^2)^3 / (eta(q) * eta(q^4)))^8 in powers of q.

Euler transform of period 4 sequence [ 8, -16, 8, -8, ...].

G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (36 t)) = 1296 (t/i)^4 f(t) where q = exp(2 pi i t).

a(4*n + 3) = a(16*n + 13) = 0. a(4*n + 1) = (-1)^n * 8 * a(n).

a(n) = b(3*n + 1) where b(n) is multiplicative and b(3^e) = 0^e, b(2^e) = (1+(-1)^e)/2 * -(-8)^(e/2) if e>0, b(p^e) = (1+(-1)^e)/2 * (-p^3)^(e/2) if p == 5 (mod 6), b(p^e) = b(p) * b(p^(e-1)) - b(p^(e-2)) * p^3 if p == 1 (mod 6) where b(p) = (x^2-3*p) * x, 4*p = x^2 + 3 * y^2, |x| < |y| and x == 2 (mod 3).

G.f.: Product_{k>0} (1 - (-x)^k)^8.
