COMMENT

The Frobenius number of a numerical semigroup generated by relatively prime integers a_1,...,a_n is the largest positive integer that is not a nonnegative linear combination of a_1,...,a_n. Since consecutive cubes are relatively prime, they generate a numerical semigroup with a Frobenius number. The Frobenius number of a 2-generated semigroup <a,b> has the formula ab-a-b.

R. Froberg, C. Gottlieb and R. Haggkvist, "On numerical semigroups", Semigroup Forum, 35 (1987), 63-83 (for definition of Frobenius number).

FORMULA

a(n) = n^3(n+1)^3-n^3-(n+1)^3 = n^6+3n^5+3n^4-n^3-3n^2-3n-1

EXAMPLE

a(2)=181 because 181 is not a nonnegative linear combination of 8 and 27, but all integers greater than 181 are.
