Since 3*r = (r+1) + r + (r-1) = T(r+1) - T(r-2), where T(r) = r-th triangular number r*(r+1)/2, we have 3*r^2 = r*(T(r+1) - T(r-2)) = f(r+1) - f(r-1) ... (i), where f(r) = (r-1)*T(r) = (r+1)*T(r-1). Summing over n, the right hand side of relation (i) telescopes to f(n+1) + f(n) = T(n)*((n+2) + (n-1)), whence the result Sum_{r=1..n} r^2 = n*(n+1)*(2*n+1)/6 immediately follows. - Lekraj Beedassy, Aug 06 2004

The n-th square pyramidal number = the n-th triangular dipyramidal number (Johnson 12), which is the sum of the n-th + (n-1)-st tetrahedral numbers. E.g., the 3rd tetrahedral number is 10 = 1+3+6, the 2nd is 4 = 1+3. In triangular "dipyramidal form" these numbers can be written as 1+3+6+3+1 = 14. For "square pyramidal form", rebracket as 1+(1+3)+(3+6) = 14. - John F. Richardson, Mar 27 2014

We construct a number triangle from the integers 1, 2, 3, ..., n as follows. The first column contains 2*n-1 integers 1. The second column contains 2*n-3 integers 2, ... The last column contains only one integer n. The sum of all the numbers in the triangle is a(n).

Conjecture: Every integer can be represented as a sum of three generalized square pyramidal numbers. A related conjecture is given in A336205 corresponding to pentagonal case. A stronger version of these conjectures is that every integer can be expressed as a sum of three generalized r-gonal pyramidal numbers for all r >= 3. In here "generalized" means negative indices are included. - Altug Alkan, Jul 30 2020

Also the number of directed bishop moves on an n X n chessboard, where two moves are considered the same if one can be obtained from the other by a rotation of the board. Reflections are ignored. Equivalently, number of directed bishop moves on an n X n chessboard, where two moves are considered the same if one can be obtained from the other by an axial reflection of the board (horizontal or vertical). Rotations and diagonal reflections are ignored. - Hilko Koning, Aug 22 2025

Coordination sequence for Dual(3^3.4^2) tiling with respect to a tetravalent node. This tiling is also called the prismatic pentagonal tiling, or the cem-d net. It is one of the 11 Laves tilings. (The identification of this coordination sequence with the g.f. in the definition was first conjectured by Colin Barker, Jan 22 2018.)
Also, coordination sequence for a tetravalent node in the "krl" 2-D tiling (or net).
Both of these identifications are easily established using the "coloring book" method - see the Goodman-Strauss & Sloane link.
For n>0, this is twice A047386 (numbers congruent to 0 or +-2 mod 7).
Linear recurrence and g.f. confirmed by Shutov/Maleev link. - Ray Chandler, Aug 31 2023

Formula

O.g.f.: x*(1 + x^2)*(1 + x)^2/((1 - x)^3*(1 + x + x^2 + x^3 + x^4)).
a(n) = a(-n-1) = 2*a(n-1) - a(n-2) + a(n-5) - 2*a(n-6) + a(n-7) = a(n-5) + 8*(n-2).
a(5*k+r) = 20*k^2 + 4*(2*r+1)*k + r^2, where 0 <= r <= 4. Example: for r=3, a(5*k+3) = (2*k+1)*(10*k+9), which gives: 9, 57, 145, 273, 441, 649 etc. Also, a(n) belongs to A047462, in fact: for r = 0 or 4, a(n) == 0 (mod 8); for r = 1 or 3, a(n) == 1 (mod 8); for r = 2, a(n) == 4 (mod 8).
a(n) = a(-n) + A047462(n).
a(n) = n^2 - floor((n-2)^2/5).
