Square pyramidal numbers when n is odd.
An interleaving of A000330 and A056520. - Michel Marcus, Aug 07 2013
FORMULA
From Colin Barker, Nov 16 2012: (Start)
a(n) = (6*(5+3*(-1)^n)+(13-9*(-1)^n)*n-3*(-3+(-1)^n)*n^2+2*n^3)/48.
G.f.: -x*(x^6-x^5-2*x^4+2*x^3-x-1)/((x-1)^4*(x+1)^3). (End)
MAPLE
for i from 1 to 100 do a(2*i-1):=sum('k^2', 'k'=1..i);
a(2*i):=a(2*i-1)+1; end do;
