The same equation also has negative solutions x=-c(n), where c would be the sequence {1,2,17,46,553,1538,18761,52222,...} with the corresponding values of r being {1,2,23,64,781,2174,26531,73852,...}. Moreover, replacing x with x+K, one obtains the Diophantine equation 2*x^2+(4*K+3)*x+(2*K^2+3*K+2)=r^2. Since K can be any integer (for example K=-1, giving 2*x^2-x+1=r^2), this amounts to an infinite family of Diophantine equations with closely related solutions. For example, if the present equation has a solution pair {a(n), A055979(n)}, the one with x replaced by x+K will have a solution {a(n)-K, A055979(n)}.
