Number of points on surface of 3-dimensional cube in which each face has a square grid of dots drawn on it (with n+1 points along each edge, including the corners).
Coordination sequence for b.c.c. lattice.
Also coordination sequence for 3D uniform tiling with tile an equilateral triangular prism. - N. J. A. Sloane, Feb 06 2018
Binomial transform of [1, 7, 11, 1, -1, 1, -1, 1, ...]. - Gary W. Adamson, Oct 22 2007
Apart from the first term, numbers of the form (r^2+2*s^2)*n^2+2 = (r*n)^2+(s*n-1)^2+(s*n+1)^2: in this case is r=2, s=1. After 8, all terms are in A000408. - Bruno Berselli, Feb 07 2012
For n > 0, the sequence of last digits (i.e., a(n) mod 10) is (8, 6, 6, 8, 2) repeating forever. - M. F. Hasler, Apr 05 2016
Number of cubes of edge length 1 required to make a hollow cube of edge length n+1. - Peter M. Chema, Apr 01 2017

a(0) = 1, a(n) = (n+1)^3 - (n-1)^3. - Ilya Nikulshin (ilyanik(AT)gmail.com), Aug 11 2009
a(0)=1, a(1)=8, a(2)=26, a(3)=56; for n>3, a(n) = 3*a(n-1)-3*a(n-2)+a(n-3). - Harvey P. Dale, Oct 25 2011
E.g.f.: 2*(1 + 3*x + 3*x^2)*exp(x) - 1. - G. C. Greubel, Dec 01 2017
Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = 3/4+ Pi*sqrt(3)*coth(Pi/sqrt 3)/12 = 1.2282133.. - R. J. Mathar, Apr 27 2024

EXAMPLE
|
For n = 1 we get the 8 corners of the cube; for n = 2 each face has 9 points, for a total of 8 + 12 + 6 = 26.

Number of n-matchings of the wheel graph W_{2n} (n > 0). Example: a(2)=10 because in the wheel W_4 (rectangle ABCD and spokes OA,OB,OC,OD) we have the 2-matchings: (AB, OC), (AB, OD), (BC, OA), (BC,OD), (CD,OA), (CD,OB), (DA,OB), (DA,OC), (AB,CD) and (BC,DA). - Emeric Deutsch, Dec 25 2004
For n > 0 a(n) is the difference of two tetrahedral (or pyramidal) numbers: binomial(n+3, 3) = (n+1)(n+2)(n+3)/6. a(n) = A000292(n+1) - A000292(n-3) = (n+1)(n+2)(n+3)/6 - (n-3)(n-2)(n-1)/6. - Alexander Adamchuk, May 20 2006; updated by Peter Munn, Aug 25 2017 due to changed offset in A000292
Equals binomial transform of [1, 3, 3, 1, -1, 1, -1, 1, -1, 1, ...]. Binomial transform of A005893 = nonzero terms of A053545: (1, 5, 19, 63, 191, ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Apr 28 2008

FORMULA

G.f.: (1+x)*(1+8*x+x^2)/(1-x)^3. - Simon Plouffe in his 1992 dissertation
G.f. for coordination sequence for A_n lattice is (1-z)^(-n) * Sum_{i=0..n} binomial(n, i)^2*z^i. [Bacher et al.]
a(n) = 12 + 24*(n-1) + 8*A000217(n-2) + 6*A000290(n-1). The properties of the cuboctahedron, namely, its number of vertices (12), edges (24), and faces as well as face-type (8 triangles and 6 squares), are involved in this formula. - Peter M. Chema, Mar 26 2017
E.g.f.: -1 + 2*(1 + 5*x + 5*x^2)*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, May 25 2023

For n >= 1, a(n) is equal to the number of functions f:{1,2,3,4}->{1,2,...,n,n+1} such that Im(f) contains 2 fixed elements. - Aleksandar M. Janjic and Milan Janjic, Feb 24 2007
Equals binomial transform of [1, 13, 23, 1, -1, 1, -1, 1, ...]. - Gary W. Adamson, Apr 22 2008
Also sequence found by reading the segment (1, 14) together with the line from 14, in the direction 14, 50, ..., in the square spiral whose vertices are the generalized octagonal numbers A001082. - Omar E. Pol, Nov 02 2012
Unique sequence such that for all n > 0, n*a(1) + (n-1)*a(2) + (n-3)*a(3) + ... + 2*a(2) + a(1) = n^4. - Warren Breslow, Dec 12 2014

FORMULA

G.f.: (1+x)*(1+10*x+x^2)/(1-x)^3. - Simon Plouffe (see MAPLE line)
a(n) = (2n-1)^2 + (2n)^2 + (2n+1)^2 for n > 0. - Bruno Berselli, Jan 30 2012
a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 3*a(n-2) + a(n-3); a(0)=1, a(1)=14, a(2)=50, a(3)=110. - Harvey P. Dale, Oct 09 2012
Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = ((Pi/sqrt(6))*coth(Pi/sqrt(6)) + 3)/4.
Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = ((Pi/sqrt(6))*cosech(Pi/sqrt(6)) + 3)/4. (End)
