COMMENTS
Write the natural numbers in groups: 1; 2,3,4; 5,6,7,8,9; 10,11,12,13,14,15,16; ..... and add the groups, i.e., a(n) = Sum_{j=n^2-2(n-1)..n^2} j. - Klaus Strassburger (strass(AT)ddfi.uni-duesseldorf.de), Sep 05 2001
The numbers 1, 9, 35, 91, etc. are divisible by 1, 3, 5, 7, etc. Therefore there are no prime numbers in this list. 9 is divisible by 3 and every third number after 9 is also divisible by 3. 35 is divisible by 5 and 7 and every fifth number after 35 is also divisible by 5 and every seventh number after 35 is also divisible by 7. This pattern continues indefinitely. - Howard Berman (howard_berman(AT)hotmail.com), Nov 07 2008
n^3 + (n+1)^3 = (2n+1)*(n^2+n+1), hence all terms are composite. - Zak Seidov, Feb 08 2011
This is the order of an n-ball centered at a node in the Kronecker product (or direct product) of three cycles, each of whose lengths is at least 2n+2. - Pranava K. Jha, Oct 10 2011
Positive y values of 4*x^3 - 3*x^2 = y^2. - Bruno Berselli, Apr 28 2018

FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{i=0..n} A005897(i), partial sums. - Jonathan Vos Post, Feb 06 2011
G.f.: (x^2+4*x+1)*(1+x)/(1-x)^3. - Simon Plouffe (see MAPLE section) and Colin Barker, Jan 02 2012; edited by N. J. A. Sloane, Feb 07 2018
a(n) = A037270(n+1) - A037270(n). - Ivan N. Ianakiev, May 13 2012
a(n) = A000217(n+1)^2 - A000217(n-1)^2. - Bob Selcoe, Mar 25 2016
a(n) = A005408(n) * A002061(n+1). - Miquel Cerda, Oct 05 2016
From Ilya Gutkovskiy, Oct 06 2016: (Start)
E.g.f.: (1 + 8*x + 9*x^2 + 2*x^3)*exp(x).
a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 6*a(n-2) + 4*a(n-3) - a(n-4). (End)
a(n) = (A081435(n))^2 - (A081435(n) - 1)^2. - Sergey Pavlov, Mar 01 2017
