COMMENTS
Consider primitive Pythagorean triangles (A^2 + B^2 = C^2, (A, B) = 1, A <= B); sequence gives perimeters A+B+C.
k is in this sequence iff A070109(k) > 0. This is a subsequence of A010814.
For the corresponding primitive Pythagorean triples see A103606. - Wolfdieter Lang, Oct 06 2014
Any term in this sequence can be generated by f(m,k) = 2*m*(m+k), where m and k are positive coprime integers and m > 1, k < m, and m and k are not both odd. For example: f(2,1) = 2*2*(2+1) = 12. - Agola Kisira Odero, Apr 29 2016
