Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Number of ways to write n as x*(3*x-2) + y*(3*y-2) + 3^u + 3^v, where x,y,u,v are integers with x <= y and 0 <= u <= v.
%C Conjecture: a(n) > 0 for all n > 1. Moreover, any integer n > 1 can be written as x*(3*x+2) + y*(3*y+2) + 3^z + 3^w, where x is an integer and y,z,w are nonnegative integers.
%C a(n) > 0 for all n = 2..3*10^8. Those x*(3*x-2) with x integral are called generalized octagonal numbers (A001082). 76683391 is the least integer n > 1 not representable as the sum of two generalized octagonal numbers and two powers of 2.
%C See also A303389, A303401 and A303432 for similar conjectures.
