COMMENTS

Icosahedral gnomic numbers: first differences of icosahedral numbers.

The sequence is related to other gnomons of polyhedra, known by other more familiar names: triangular (tetrahedral gnomic), hex (cubic gnomic), square pyramidal numbers (octohedral gnomic)

Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000

FORMULA

a(n)= (n+1)*(5*(n+1)^2-5*(n+1)+2)-n*(5*n^2-5*n+2)/2

Apparently o.g.f = { t/(1-t) + 10 [t/(1-t)]^2 + 15 [t/(1-t)]^3 } / t with a(0) = 1. [From Tom Copeland (tcjpn(AT)msn.com), Oct 11 2008]

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 11 because (1+1)*(5*(1+1)^2-5*(1+1)+2)-1*(5*1^2-5*1+2)/2 = 2*(5*2^2-5*2+2)-1*(5-5+2)/2 = 2*(20-10+2)/2-1 = 12-1 = 11
