COMMENT

Numbers that are the sum of three solutions of the diophantine equation x^3 - y^3 = z^2.

Parametric representation of the solution is (x,y,z) = (8n^2, 7n^2, 13n^3), thus getting a(n) = 8n^2 + 7n^2 + 13n^3 = 15n^2 + 13n^3.

Geometrically, 13^2 = 8^3 - 7^3 means that the square of the hypotenuse of a Pythagorean triangle (5,12,13) is the difference of two cubes, which I recently found on p70 of David Wells' book "The Penguin Dictionary of Curios and Interesting Numbers", Penguin Books, 1997. See also A085479.
