COMMENTS

The main sequence on triangular polyominoes is A000577. The convexity condition makes enumeration easy as a convex triangular polyomino has at most 6 sides. It is simple to prove that a(n) is also the number of 4-tuples (p,b,c,d) of nonnegative integers satisfying b<=c<=d, b+c+d<=p, n=p^2-b^2-c^2-d^2.

MAPLE

a:=proc(n) local x, p, d, c, b; x:=0; for p from 0 to ceil((n+1)/2) do; for d from 0 to p do; for c from 0 to min(d, p-d) do; for b from 0 to min(c, p-c-d) do; if p^2-b^2-c^c-d^2=n then x:=x+1 fi; od; od; od; od; x; end;
