%N Difference between n^3 and the next smaller square

%C The sequence A077116(n) = n^3-[sqrt(n^3)]^2 satisfies A077116(n)=0 <=> n^3 is a square <=> n is a square. It differs from the present sequence (which is always positive) only in these indices, where a(k^2)=2k^3-1.

%F a(n) = n^3 - [sqrt(n^3 - 1)]^2 = A000578(n) - A048760(n^3-1). a(k^2) = 2 k^3 - 1.
