Examples
a(1) = 0 because there are no even numbers between 1 and itself. a(2) = 6 because between 1 and 2^2 there are the even numbers 2 and 4, which add up to 6. a(3) = 20 because between 1 and 3^2 there are the even numbers 2, 4, 6 and 8, which add up to 20.

PARI
a(n) = sum(i=1, n, i^2*(!(i % 2))); \\ Michel Marcus, Jan 18 2014
Formula
a(n) = (n^4 + 2n^2)/4 if n is even, a(n) = (n^4 - 1)/4 if n is odd.
a(n) = ((n^2 - (n^2 mod 2))/4)(n^2 + 2 - (n^2 mod 2)). - Alonso del Arte, Jan 16 2014
a(n) = A110660(n^2). - Michel Marcus, Jan 18 2014
