%N Sum of square displacements over all self-avoiding n-step walks on the cubic lattice with the first step specified. Numerator of mean square displacement s(n)=a(n)/(A001412(n)/6).

%C A comparison with the conjectured asymptotic behavior of the mean square displacement s(n) over all n-step self-avoiding walks given in Weisstein's article is shown in "Asymptotic Behavior of Mean Square Displacement" at the Pfoertner link.

%F a(n) = Sum_{L=1..A001412(n)/6} ( i_L^2 + j_L^2 + k_L^2 ) where (i_L, j_L, k_L) are the endpoints of all different self-avoiding n-step walks.

%e a(2)=12 because the A001412(2)/6 = 5 different self-avoiding 2-step walks end at (1,0,-1), (1,0,1), (1,-1,0), (1,1,0)->d^2=2 and at (2,0,0)->d^2=4. a(2) = 4*2 + 1*4 = 12. See also "Distribution of end point distance" at first link.
