a(n) = 0 if and only if n = 1 or n is prime. - Chai Wah Wu, Jul 26 2024

Formula

a(n) = (n+1)*A000005(n)-2*A000203(n). - Chai Wah Wu, Jul 26 2024

Example

a(6) = 4 since there are solutions (2,1,1,1), (1,2,1,1), (1,1,2,1), (1,1,1,2).

Prog

(PARI) a(n) = sum(x=1, n, sum(y=1, n, sum(z=1, n, sum(w=1, n, x*y+y*z+z*w+w*x==n))));
