Write the natural numbers in groups: 1; 2,3,4; 5,6,7,8,9; 10,11,12,13,14,15,16; ..... and add the groups, i.e., a(n) = Sum_{j=n^2-2(n-1)..n^2} j. - Klaus Strassburger (strass(AT)ddfi.uni-duesseldorf.de), Sep 05 2001
The numbers 1, 9, 35, 91, etc. are divisible by 1, 3, 5, 7, etc. Therefore there are no prime numbers in this list. 9 is divisible by 3 and every third number after 9 is also divisible by 3. 35 is divisible by 5 and 7 and every fifth number after 35 is also divisible by 5 and every seventh number after 35 is also divisible by 7. This pattern continues indefinitely. - Howard Berman (howard_berman(AT)hotmail.com), Nov 07 2008
n^3 + (n+1)^3 = (2n+1)*(n^2+n+1), hence all terms are composite. - Zak Seidov, Feb 08 2011
This is the order of an n-ball centered at a node in the Kronecker product (or direct product) of three cycles, each of whose lengths is at least 2n+2. - Pranava K. Jha, Oct 10 2011

Number of points in simple cubic lattice at most n steps from origin.
If X is an n-set and Y_i (i=1,2,3) mutually disjoint 2-subsets of X then a(n-6) is equal to the number of 6-subsets of X intersecting each Y_i (i=1,2,3). - Milan Janjic, Aug 26 2007
Equals binomial transform of [1, 6, 12, 8, 0, 0, 0, ...] where (1, 6, 12, 8) = row 3 of the Chebyshev triangle A013609. - Gary W. Adamson, Jul 19 2008
Let A be the Hessenberg matrix of order n, defined by: A[1,j]=1, A[i,i]:=2,(i>1), A[i,i-1]=-1, and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n >= 4, a(n-2) = -coeff(charpoly(A,x),x^(n-3)). - Milan Janjic, Jan 26 2010
a(n) = A005408(n) * A097080(n-1) / 3. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Dec 15 2013
a(n) = D(3,n) where D are the Delannoy numbers (A008288). As such, a(n) gives the number of grid paths from (0,0) to (3,n) using steps that move one unit north, east, or northeast. - David Eppstein, Sep 07 2014
The first comment above can be re-expressed and generalized as follows: a(n) is the number of points in Z^3 that are L1 (Manhattan) distance <= n from any given point. Equivalently, due to a symmetry that is easier to see in the Delannoy numbers array (A008288), as a special case of Dmitry Zaitsev's Dec 10 2015 comment on A008288, a(n) is the number of points in Z^n that are L1 (Manhattan) distance <= 3 from any given point. - Shel Kaphan, Jan 02 2023

Final digits of a(n), i.e., a(n) mod 10, are repeated periodically with period of length 5 {1,5,5,5,9}. There is a symmetry in this list since the sum of two numbers equally distant from the ends is equal to 10 = 1 + 9 = 5 + 5 = 2*5.

The following remarks about the C_3 lattice assume the sequence offset is 0.
Partial sums of A010006. So this sequence is the crystal ball sequence for the C_3 lattice - row 3 of A142992. The lattice C_3 consists of all integer lattice points v = (a,b,c) in Z^3 such that a + b + c is even, equipped with the taxicab type norm ||v|| = (1/2) * (|a| + |b| + |c|).
The crystal ball sequence of C_3 gives the number of lattice points v in C_3 with ||v|| <= n for n = 0,1,2,3,... [Bacher et al.].
For example, a(1) = 19 because the origin has norm 0 and the 18 lattice points in Z^3 of norm 1 (as defined above) are +-(2,0,0), +-(0,2,0), +-(0,0,2), +-(1,1,0), +-(1,0,1), +-(0,1,1), +-(1,-1,0), +-(1,0,-1) and +-(0,1,-1). These 18 vectors form a root system of type C_3.
O.g.f.: x*(1 + 15*x + 15*x^2 + x^3)/(1 - x)^4 = x/(1 - x) * T(3, (1 + x)/(1 - x)), where T(n, x) denotes the Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind.
2*log(2) = 4/3 + Sum_{n >= 1} 1/(n*a(n)*a(n+1)). (End)
a(n+1) = (1/Pi) * Integral_{x=0..Pi} (sin((n+1/2)*x)/sin(x/2))^4. - Yalcin Aktar, Nov 02 2011, corrected by R. J. Mathar, Dec 01 2011

For n>0, 30*a(n) is the sum of the ten distinct products of 2*n-1, 2*n+1, and 2*n+3. For example, when n = 1, we sum the ten distinct products of 1, 3, and 5: 1*1*1 + 1*1*3 + 1*1*5 + 1*3*3 + 1*3*5 + 1*5*5 + 3*3*3 + 3*3*5 + 3*5*5 + 5*5*5 = 330 = 30*11 = 30*a(1). - J. M. Bergot, Apr 06 2014

From Omar E. Pol, Oct 23 2019: (Start)
a(n) is also the sum of terms that are in the n-th finite row and in the n-th finite column of the square [1,n]x[1,n] of the natural number array A000027; e.g., the [1,3]x[1,3] square is
1..3..6
2..5..9
4..8..13,
so that a(1) = 1, a(2) = 2 + 3 + 5 = 10, a(3) = 4 + 6 + 8 + 9 + 13 = 40.
Hence the partial sums give A185505. (End)
