FORMULA

a(n)=n*(7*n-6).

G.f.: x*(1+13*x)/(1-x)^3. - Bruno Berselli, Feb 04 2011

a(0)=0, a(1)=1, a(2)=16, a(n)=3*a(n-1)-3*a(n-2)+a(n-3) [From Harvey P. Dale, May 07 2011]

a(n)=14*n+a(n-1)-13 (with a(0)=0) [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Aug 06 2010]

EXAMPLE

a(1)=14*1+0-13=1; a(2)=14*2+1-13=16; a(3)=14*3+16-13=45 [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Aug 06 2010]

MAPLE

a[0]:=0:a[1]:=1:for n from 2 to 50 do a[n]:=2*a[n-1]-a[n-2]+14 od: seq(a[n], n=0..41); - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Feb 18 2008
