FORMULA

a(n) = 3n^2+1 = a(n-1)+6n-3 = 2a(n-1)-a(n-2)+6 = 3a(n-1)-3a(n-2)+a(n-3) = A056105(n)+2n = A056106(n)+n = A056108(n)-n = A056109(n)-2n = A003215(n)-3n
a(n)={A000578(n+1) - A000578(n-1)}/2. - Lekraj Beedassy (blekraj(AT)yahoo.com), Jul 29 2005
a(n) = A132111(n+1,n-1) for n>1. - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Aug 10 2007
Equals binomial transform of [1, 3, 6, 0, 0, 0,...] - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), May 03 2008
