COMMENTS
The three squares need not be distinct.
At least one of the squares must be divisible by 9.
The first term that is a concatenation of three squares in two different ways is 14411, the concatenation of 1 = 1^2, 441 = 21^2 and 1 = 1^2 and also 144 = 12^2, 1 = 1^2 and 1 = 1^2.
The first term that is a concatenation of three squares in three different ways is 1961441, the concatenation of 196 = 14^2, 144 = 12^2 and 1 = 1^2, of 196, 1 and 441 = 21^2, and of 1, 961 = 31^2 and 441.

EXAMPLE
a(16) = 1049 is a term because it is the concatenation of 1 = 1^2, 0 = 0^2 and 49 = 7^2.
