Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

For an arithmetical function f, call the pairs (x,y) such that y = f(x) and x, y are palindromes the "palinpairs" of f. {a(n)} is then the sequence of abscissae of palinpairs of f(n) = n^3.
Perhaps this sequence is the same as A002780, except for 2201. - Dmitry Kamenetsky, Apr 16 2009
For n >= 5, there are no terms with digit sum 5. Conjecture: all terms belong to one of 3 disjoint classes of the following forms: 10^k+1, 10^(2*t)+10^t+1, t > 0, and (10^u+1)*(10^v+1), u,v > 0, with digit sums 2, 3 and 4 correspondingly. - Vladimir Shevelev, May 31 2011
