A301375 Number of ways to write n as x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + w^2 with x,y,z nonnegative integers and w a positive integer such that x*(y+3*z) is a cube or half a cube and y <= z <= w if x = 0.

Comments

Conjecture: a(n) > 0 for all n > 0.

We have verified this for all n = 1..3*10^6.

Examples

			a(14) = 1 since 14 = 0^2 + 1^2 + 2^2 + 3^2 with 0*(1+3*2) = 0^3.
a(15) = 1 since 15 = 2^2 + 1^2 + 1^2 + 3^2 with 2*(1+3*1) = 2^3.
a(16) = 1 since 16 = 0^2 + 0^2 + 0^2 + 4^2 with 0*(0+3*0) = 0^3.
a(60) = 1 since 60 = 4^2 + 2^2 + 2^2 + 6^2 with 4*(2+3*2) = 4^3/2.
a(92) = 1 since 92 = 6^2 + 6^2 + 4^2 + 2^2 with 6*(6+3*4) = 6^3/2.
a(240) = 1 since 240 = 2^2 + 14^2 + 6^2 + 2^2 with 2*(14+3*6) = 4^3.
a(807) = 1 since 807 = 1^2 + 21^2 + 2^2 + 19^2 with 1*(21+3*2) = 3^3.
