Write 1,2,3,4,... in a hexagonal spiral around 0, then a(n) is the sequence found by reading the line from 0 in the direction 0,5,... - Floor van Lamoen (fvlamoen(AT)hotmail.com), Jul 21 2001. The spiral begins:
......16..15..14
....17..5...4...13
..18..6...0...3...12
19..7...1...2...11..26
..20..8...9...10..25
....21..22..23..24
Connection to triangular numbers: 4T_n + S_n where T_n is triangular number n and S_n is square number n. [From William A. Tedeschi, Sep 12 2010]
Also, second octagonal numbers. - Bruno Berselli, Jan 13 2011
Sequence found by reading the line from 0, in the direction 0, 16,... and the line from 5, in the direction 5, 33,..., in the square spiral whose vertices are the generalized octagonal numbers A001082. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 18 2012

FORMULA

O.g.f.: x*(5+x)/(1-x)^3 . - R. J. Mathar, Jan 07 2008
a(0)=0, a(1)=5, a(2)=16, a(n)=3*a(n-1)-3*a(n-2)+a(n-3). [Harvey P. Dale, May 06 2011]
a(n)=a(n-1)+6*n-1 (with a(0)=0). [Vincenzo Librandi, Nov 18 2010]
For n>0, a(n)^3+(a(n)+1)^3 +...+(a(n)+n)^3 +2*A000217(n)^2= (a(n)+n+1)^3+...+(a(n)+2n)^3; see also A033954 - Charlie Marion, Dec 08 2007
a(n) = sum(A016969(i), i=0..n-1) for n>0. - Bruno Berselli, Jan 13 2011
a(n) = A174709(6n+4). - Philippe Deléham, Mar 26 2013
