# Centered cube number

35 points in a body-centered cubic lattice, forming two cubical layers around a central point

A centered cube number is a centered figurate number that counts the number of points in a three-dimensional pattern formed by a point surrounded by concentric cubical layers of points, with i 2 points on the square faces of the i-th layer. Equivalently, it is the number of points in a body-centered cubic pattern within a cube that has n + 1 points along each of its edges.

The first few centered cube numbers are

1, 9, 35, 91, 189, 341, 559, 855, 1241, 1729, 2331, 3059, 3925, 4941, 6119, 7471, 9009, ... (sequence A005898 in the OEIS).

## Formulas

The centered cube number for a pattern with n concentric layers around the central point is given by the formula[1]

${\displaystyle n^{3}+(n+1)^{3}=(2n+1)(n^{2}+n+1).}$

The same number can also be expressed as a trapezoidal number (difference of two triangular numbers), or a sum of consecutive numbers, as[2]

${\displaystyle {\binom {(n+1)^{2}+1}{2}}-{\binom {n^{2}+1}{2}}=(n^{2}+1)+(n^{2}+2)+\cdots +(n+1)^{2}.}$

## Properties

Because of the factorization ${\displaystyle (2n+1)(n^{2}+n+1)}$, it is impossible for a centered cube number to be a prime number.[3] The only centered cube number that is also a square number is 9.[4][5]
