COMMENTS
An abelian cube is a word of the form x x' x'', where x' and x'' are permutations of x, like the English word "deeded". The order of an abelian cube is the length of x.

FORMULA
There is a deterministic finite automaton of 1169 states that takes n in its tribonacci representation as input and accepts if and only if there is an abelian cube of order n. It can be obtained with the Walnut theorem-prover.
EXAMPLE
Here are the earliest-appearing abelian cubes of the first few orders:
n = 4: 2010.0102.0102
n = 6: 102010.010201.010201
n = 7: 0102010.0102010.1020100
n = 11: 02010010201.01020100102.01020100102
