COMMENTS

The structure has a fractal behavior similar to the toothpick sequence A139250.
First differences: A161415, where there is an explicit formula for the n-th term.
For an illustration of 1729 (the Hardy-Ramanujan number) see link section.

EXAMPLE
|
If we label the generations of cells turned ON by consecutive numbers we get the cell pattern shown below:
99.............99
98888888888888889
.877887787788778.
.876666787666678.
.886556888655688.
.886544444445688.
.876643343346678.
.877843222348778.
.888844212448888.
.877843222348778.
.876643343346678.
.886544444445688.
.886556888655688.
.876666787666678.
.877887787788778.
98888888888888889
99.............99
In the first generation, only the central "1" is ON, a(1)=1. In the next generation, we turn ON eight "2"'s around the central cell, leading to a(2)=a(1)+8=9. In the third generation, twelve "3"'s are turned ON around the vertices of the square, a(3)=a(2)+3*4=21, and so on.
