COMMENTS

These numbers belong to a family of sequences obtained as follows:
. a(n): 13*(2^n-1) - 3*n^2 - 9*n;
. A257449: 75*(2^n-1) - 4*n^3 - 18*n^2 - 52*n;
. A257450: 541*(2^n-1) - 5*n^4 - 30*n^3 - 130*n^2 - 375*n,
where the sequence 1, 3, 13, 75, 541, ... is A000670 (after the first term), and A208744 gives the triangle of coefficients:
2;
3, 9;
4, 18, 52;
5, 30, 130, 375;
6, 45, 260, 1125, 3246;
7, 63, 455, 2625, 11361, 32781, etc.
Also, the antidiagonal sums in the array are given by the formula (6*n^2 + 6*k*n + (k-1)*k)*(k+n)!/((k+3)!*(n-1)!) for k = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... (see Example field).

FORMULA

G.f.: x*(1+4*x+x^2)/((1-x)^3*(1-2*x)).
a(n) = 5*a(n-1) - 9*a(n-2) + 7*a(n-3) - 2*a(n-4) for n>4. - Ray Chandler, Jul 25 2015

EXAMPLE

By the second comment, the array begins:
k=0: 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, ... A000578
k=1: 1, 9, 36, 100, 225, 441, ... A000537
k=2: 1, 10, 46, 146, 371, 812, ... A024166
k=3: 1, 11, 57, 203, 574, 1386, ... A101094
k=4: 1, 12, 69, 272, 846, 2232, ... A101097
k=5: 1, 13, 82, 354, 1200, 3432, ... A101102
k=6: 1, 14, 96, 450, 1650, 5082, ... A254469
