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”).

%N Value of s corresponding to norm of n-th shell of points in mcc lattice.
%C The mcc lattice is generated by the vectors (u,v,0), (u,0,v) and (0,v,v), where u = 2^(-1/2), v = 2^(-1/4).
%C The norms q = X.X of the lattice points X have the form q = s/2 + t/sqrt(2) for integers s and t.
%C A222301 gives the number of points with each successive value of q; A222302 and A222303 give the corresponding values of s and t.
