convolution sums; sum of divisors function; theta functions
Summary:
The convolution sum $$ \sum\limits_{\substack{m=1 \\ m\equiv a\pmod 4}}^{n-1} \sigma (m) \sigma (n-m) $$ is evaluated for $a\in \{ 0,1,2,3\}$ and all $n \in \Bbb N$. This completes the partial evaluation given in the paper of J. G. Huard, Z. M. Ou, B. K. Spearman, K. S. Williams.
