FORMULA
|
Euler transform of length 8 sequence [1, -1, 1, -1, 0, -1, 0, 1].
a(n) is multiplicative with a(2^e) = 0^e, a(p^e) = 1 if p == 1 or 3 (mod 8), a(p^e) = (-1)^e otherwise and a(0) = 1.
a(n) = -a(-n) for all n in Z unless n = 0. a(n+4) = -a(n) unless n = 0 or n = -4. a(2*n) = 0 unless n = 0.
a(n+1) - a(n) = (-1)^n if n>0.
G.f.: (1 + x) * (1 + x^3) / (1 + x^4) = 1 + (x + x^3) / (1 + x^4).
G.f.: (1 - x^2) * (1 - x^4) * (1 - x^6) / ((1 - x) * (1 - x^3) * (1 - x^8)).
G.f.: 1 / (1 - x / (1 + x / (1 + x / (1 - x / (1 + 2*x / (1 - 2*x / (1 - x / (2 + x)))))))).
