Numbers n such that n^3+1 is expressible as the sum of two nonzero cubes (both greater than 1).
Values of z associated with A050794.
Sequence is infinite. One subsequence is (from x = 1 + 9 m^3, y = 9 m^4, z = 3*m*(3*m^3 + 1), x^3 + y^3 = z^3 + 1): z(m) = 3*m*(3*m^3 + 1) = {12, 150, 738, 2316, 5640, 11682, 21630, 36888, 59076, 90030, ...} = a (1, 3, 6, 10, 13, 17, 20, 23, 30, 37, ...). - Zak Seidov, Sep 16 2013

EXAMPLE
|
12 is a term because 10^3 + 9^3 = 12^3 + 1 (= 1729).
2316 is in the sequence because 577^3 + 2304^3 = 2316^3 + 1.
