A centered cube number is a centered figurate number that represents a cube. The centered cube number for n is given by the equation
n3 + (n + 1)3.
The first few centered cube numbers are
1, 9, 35, 91, 189, 341, 559, 855, 1241, 1729, 2331, 3059, 3925, 4941, 6119, 7471, 9009, 10745, 12691, 14859, 17261, 19909, 22815, 25991, 29449, 33201, 37259, 41635, 46341, 51389, 56791, 62559, 68705, 75241, 82179, 89531, 97309, 105525.
Centered cube numbers have applications in modelling the shells of atoms.
