A072368 Minimal total volume of n bricks with integer sides, all sides being different. Lowest value of sum of products of triples p*q*r chosen from [1,3n]. 1

COMMENTS

For n=19, the smallest integer from each triple does not belong to range [1,19]. Triplicating the sets of triples, shifting each triple to the left, generates permutations as in A070735, but not provably minimal ones.

EXAMPLE

a(7)=4645 because (1*20*21)+(2*18*19)+(3*15*16)+(4*13*14)+(5*8*17)+(6*10*12)+(7*9*11)=4645 is the smallest value attainable.
