%N Expansion of g.f. (1+x)^2*(x^2-6*x+1)/(x-1)^4.

%C This g.f. is the eighth power of the spontaneous magnetization series for the two-dimensional square lattice in the parameter x = exp(-4J/kT), cf. A002928.

%D Terrel L. Hill, Statistical Mechanics: Principles and Selected Applications, Dover, New York, 1956, page 331. See eq. 44.12 for the g.f. with x replaced by x^2.
