COMMENTS
a(n-1) is the number of distinct distances on an n X n pegboard. What is its asymptotic growth? Can it be efficiently computed for large n? - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jun 13 2013
Conjecture (after Landau and Erdős): a(n) ~ c * n^2 / sqrt(log(n)), where c = 0.79... . - Vaclav Kotesovec, Mar 10 2016
