Formula

a(n) = A211639(n^2).

a(n) = [x^(n^2)] (theta_3(x) - 1)^3/(8*(1 - x)), where theta_3() is the Jacobi theta function. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Apr 17 2018

Example

a(4)=17 counts the following solutions (x,y,z): (1,1,1), (2,2,2), three permutations of (1,1,2), three permutations of (1,1,3), three permutations of (1,2,2), and six permutations of (1,2,3).
