%F From _Andrew Howroyd_, Jul 17 2018: (Start)

%F a(p^e) = p^e for p prime and p mod 3 = 2.

%F Conjecture: a(3^e) = 2*3^e for e > 1.

%F a(p^e) = p^(e-1)*(p - 1 + Sum_{b=1..p-1} Legendre(12*b^(-1) - 3*b^2, p)) for p prime and p <> 3.

%F The final formula arises from factoring x^3 + y^3 as (x + y)*(x*2 - x*y + y^2), then substituting b = x + y and counting the solutions to the resulting quadratic equation 3*x^2 - 3*b*x + b^2 == b^(-1) (mod p) for each nonzero value of b. (End)
