A hex number, also called a centered hexagonal number, is given by
(1) |

(2) |
where is the th triangular number and the indexing with is used following Conway and Guy (1996). The first few hex numbers for , 1, ... are 1, 7, 19, 37, 61, 91, 127, 169, ... (OEIS A003215).
The hex numbers satisfy the recurrence equation
(3) |
The generating function of the hex numbers is
(4) |
The hex numbers are related to the cubic numbers by
(5) |
This follows immediately from the fact that , giving a telescoping sum.
The first triangular hex numbers are 1, 91, 8911, 873181, 85562821, ... (OEIS A006244). These correspond to indices of triangular and hex numbers of , 5, 54, 539, 5340, 52865, 523314, 5180279, 51279480, ... (OEIS A087125) and , 13, 133, 1321, 13081, 129493, 1281853, ... (OEIS A031138). These are given by solving the Diophantine equation

The first few square hex numbers are 1, 169, 32761, 6355441, ... (OEIS A006051). These correspond to indices of triangular and hex numbers of , 7, 104, 1455, 20272, 282359, 3932760, ... (OEIS A001921) and , 13, 181, 2521, 35113, 489061, 6811741, ... (OEIS A001570). These are given by solving the Diophantine equation

The only hex number that is both square and triangular is 1.
There are no cubic hex numbers.
The prime hex numbers are sometimes known as Cuban primes.
