We study decompositions of natural numbers into triangular summands. For instance, we prove that any natural number can be represented as a sum of four triangular numbers, two of them having even indices and the other two having odd indices. This settles a conjecture by Zhi-Wei Sun (arXiv:1503.03743v8).
