Comments

The q^(kn) term of any single factor of the product (1-(4q)^k)^(1/2) is (-2)*A000108(n-1). Hence these numbers are related to the Catalan numbers A000108 by a partition-based convolution.

Sequence appears to be positive and negative roughly half the time.

This sequence is obtained from the generalized Euler transform in A266964 by taking f(n) = -1/2, g(n) = 4^n. - Seiichi Manyama, Apr 20 2018
