COMMENTS

For n=2^k, a(n)=4 n^3 because A016727(2^k) = SumOfSquaresRepresentations[3,(2^k)^2] contains only {0,0,2^k}.

This is why a(16) and a(32) are visibly so much smaller than their neighbors when you look at the graph. [Jonathan Vos Post, Apr 22 2011]

EXAMPLE

a(2)= 32 because the volume of the polyhedron formed by all integer points at distance 2 from the origin, {{-2, 0, 0}, {0, -2, 0}, {0, 0, -2}, {0, 0, 2}, {0, 2, 0}, {2, 0, 0}}, is 32/3.
