Conjecture: a(n) > 0 for all n = 0,1,2,....
In the latest version of arXiv:1605.03074, the authors showed that any natural number can be written as x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + w^2 with x,y,z,w integers such that x + y + z + w is a cube (or a square).
For more conjectural refinements of Lagrange's four-square theorem, see the author's preprint arXiv:1604.06723.

EXAMPLE

a(12) = 1 since 12 = 3^2 + 1^2 + (-1)^2 + (-1)^2 with 3 - 1 + (-1) + (-1) = 0^3.
a(17) = 1 since 17 = 2^2 + 0^2 + 2^2 + (-3)^2 with 2 - 0 + 2 + (-3) = 1^3.
a(28) = 1 since 28 = 3^2 + 1^2 + 3^2 + 3^2 with 3 - 1 + 3 + 3 = 2^3.
a(29) = 1 since 29 = 3^2 + 0^2 + 2^2 + (-4)^2 with 3 - 0 + 2 + (-4) = 1^3.
a(71) = 1 since 71 = 5^2 + 1^2 + 3^2 + (-6)^2 with 5 - 1 + 3 + (-6) = 1^3.
a(149) = 1 since 149 = 8^2 + 0^2 + 2^2 + (-9)^2 with 8 - 0 + 2 + (-9) = 1^3.
a(188) = 1 since 188 = 13^2 + 3^2 + 1^2 + (-3)^2 with 13 - 3 + 1 + (-3) = 2^3.
a(284) = 1 since 284 = 15^2 + 5^2 + 3^2 + (-5)^2 with 15 - 5 + 3 + (-5) = 2^3.
