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

E.g., a(0)=1 because with no points, we just have two empty lines. a(1)=3 because the one point may belong to 0, 1 or 2 lines. a(2)=7 because there are 7 ways to determine which of 2 points belong to which of 2 lines, up to isomorphism, i.e., up to a bijection f on the sets of points and a bijection g on the sets of lines, such that A belongs to a iff f(A) belongs to g(a). - Bjorn Kjos-Hanssen (bjorn(AT)math.uconn.edu), Nov 10 2005
a(n-2) is the number of ways to pick two non-overlapping subwords of equal nonzero length from a word of length n.

In general, the convolution of two infinite sequences is defined from the convolution of two n-tuples:  let X(n) = (x(1),...,x(n)) and Y(n)=(y(1),...,y(n)); then X(n)**Y(n) = x(1)*y(n)+x(2)*y(n-1)+...+x(n)*y(1); this sum is the n-th term in the convolution of infinite sequences:(x(1),...,x(n),...)**(y(1),...,y(n),...), for all n>=1.

In the following guide to related arrays and sequences, row n of each array T(n,k) is the convolution b**c of the sequences b(h) and c(h+n-1). The principal diagonal is given by T(n,n) and the n-th antidiagonal sum by S(n). In some cases, T(n,n) or S(n) differs in offset from the listed sequence.

Suppose that u = (u(n)) and v = (v(n)) are sequences having generating functions U(x) and V(x), respectively. Then the convolution u**v has generating function U(x)*V(x). Accordingly, if u and v are homogeneous linear recurrence sequences, then every row of the convolution array T satisfies the same homogeneous linear recurrence equation, which can be easily obtained from the denominator of U(x)*V(x). Also, every column of T has the same homogeneous linear recurrence as v.

Define a 'stable brick triangle' as:
      -----
      | c |
  ---------
  | a | | b |
  ----------
with a, b, c > 0 and c <= a + b. This can be visualized as two bricks with a third brick on top. The third brick can only be as strong as a+b, otherwise the wall collapses - for example, (1,2,4) is unstable.
a(n) gives the number of stable brick triangles that can be formed if the two supporting bricks are 1 <= a <= n and 1 <= b <= n: a(n) = Sum_{a=1..n} Sum_{b=1..n} Sum_c 1 = n^3 + n^2 as given in the Adamchuk formula.
So for i=j=n=2 we have 4:
   1    2    3    4
  2 2  2 2  2 2  2 2
For example, n=2 gives 2 from [a=1,b=1], 3 from both [a=1,b=2] and [a=2,b=1] and 4 from [a=2,b=2] so a(2) = 2 + 3 + 3 + 4 = 12. (End)
Define the infinite square array m(n,k) by m(n,k) = (n-k)^2 if n >= k >= 0 and by m(n,k) = (k+n)*(k-n) if 0 <= n <= k. This contains A120070 below the diagonal. Then a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} m(n,k) + Sum_{r=0..n} m(r,n), the "hook sum" of the terms to the left of m(n,n) and above m(n,n) with irrelevant (vanishing) terms on the diagonal. - J. M. Bergot, Aug 16 2013
a(n) is the sum of all pairs with repetition drawn from the set of odd numbers 2*n-3. This is similar to A027480 but using the odd integers instead. Example using n=3 gives the odd numbers 1,3,5: 1+1, 1+3, 1+5, 3+3, 3+5,5+5 having a total of 36=a(3). - J. M. Bergot, Apr 05 2016
a(n) is the first Zagreb index of the complete graph K[n+1]. The first Zagreb index of a simple connected graph is the sum of the squared degrees of its vertices. Alternately, it is the sum of the degree sums d(i)+d(j) over all edges ij of the graph. - Emeric Deutsch, Nov 07 2016
a(n-2) is the maximum sigma irregularity over all trees with n vertices.  The extremal graphs are stars.  (The sigma irregularity of a graph is the sum of squares of the differences between the degrees over all edges of the graph.) - Allan Bickle, Jun 14 2023

A000447 a(n) = 1^2 + 3^2 + 5^2 + 7^2 + ... + (2n-1)^2 = n(4*n^2 - 1)/3.

A002413 Heptagonal (or 7-gonal) pyramidal numbers: a(n) = n(n+1)(5*n-2)/6.
