%N Each term of A003215 (centered hexagonal numbers) is multiplied by the corresponding term of A003154 (centered dodecagonal numbers).

%C The digital root (A010888) of each term is 1.

%F a(n) = A003215(n) * A003154(n).

%F a(n) = 18*n^4 - 36*n^3 + 27*n^2 - 9*n + 1.

%e The centered hexagonal number of 4 is 37, and the centered dodecagonal number of 4 is 73, so the fourth term of the series is [37 x 73] = 2701.
