COMMENTS

If we define C(n)=(5*n)^2 (n>0), the sequence is the first "square-sequence" such that for every n there exists p such that : C(n)=C(p)+C(p+n). We observe in fact that p=3n because 25=3^2+4^2. The sequence without 0 is linked with the first nontrivial solution (trivial: n^2=0^2+n^2) of the equation X^2=2Y^2+2n^2 where X=2*k and Y=2*p+n which is equivalent to k^2=p^2+(p+n)^2 for n given. The second such "square-sequence" is (29*n)^2 (n>0) because 29^2=20^2+21^2 and with this relation we obtain (29*n)^2=(20*n)^2+(20n+n)^2. - Richard Choulet (richardchoulet(AT)yahoo.fr), Dec 23 2007
