COMMENTS
This sequence is a bisection of A118277 (even part).
Sequence found by reading the line from 0, in the direction 0, 19... and the line from 6, in the direction 6, 39,..., in the square spiral whose vertices are the generalized 9-gonal numbers A118277. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 24 2012
The early part of this sequence is a strikingly close approximation to the early part of A100752. - Peter Munn, Nov 14 2019

FORMULA
G.f.: x*(6 + x)/(1 - x)^3.
a(n) = Sum_{i=0..(n-1)} A017053(i) for n>0.
a(-n) = A001106(n).
Sum_{i=0..n} (a(n)+i)^2 = ( Sum_{i=(n+1)..2*n} (a(n)+i)^2 ) + 21*A000217(n)^2 for n>0.
a(n) = a(n-1)+7*n-1 for n>0, with a(0)=0. - Vincenzo Librandi, Feb 05 2011
a(0)=0, a(1)=6, a(2)=19; for n>2, a(n) = 3*a(n-1)-3*a(n-2)+a(n-3). - Harvey P. Dale, Aug 19 2011
a(n) = A174738(7n+5). - Philippe Deléham, Mar 26 2013
a(n) = A001477(n) + 2*A000290(n) + 3*A000217(n). - J. M. Bergot, Apr 25 2014
a(n) = A055998(4*n) - A055998(3*n). - Bruno Berselli, Sep 23 2016
E.g.f.: (x/2)*(12 + 7*x)*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, Aug 19 2017
