Matt Parker calls these numbers cannonball numbers, after the cannonball problem involving finding a number both square and square pyramidal.
If m==2 (mod 3), the m-gonal number A057145(m,(m^3-6*m^2+3*m+19)/9) = (m^2-4*m-2)*(m^2-4*m+1)*(m^3-6*m^2+3*m+19)/162 = A344410((m-2)/3) is a term. See comment in A027696. - Pontus von Brömssen, Dec 09 2024

Examples

			4900 is a term because it is both the 70th square and the 24th square pyramidal number.

For n <= 46, there is a unique k >= 3 such that A373711(n) is both k-gonal and k-gonal pyramidal. If this were true for all n, A027669 would be the sorted distinct terms of this sequence.

Indices to polygonal numbers are chosen so that the first k-gonal number is 1 (and the zeroth is 0).
