Abstract
We evaluate the convolution sum for for all positive integers . We use a modular form approach. We also re-evaluate the known sums and with our method. We then use these evaluations to determine the number of representations of by the octonary quadratic form . Finally we compare our evaluations of the sums and with the evaluations of Lemire and Williams [10] and Royer [13] to express the modular forms , and (given in [10, 13]) as linear combinations of eta quotients.
