Also, the number of non-congruent solutions to x^2 - 2y^2 == -1 (mod n). - Andrew Howroyd, Jul 16 2018
The comment above is based on the identity -(x^2 - 2y^2) = (x-2y)^2 - 2(x-y)^2. - Jianing Song, Jul 17 2018

Multiplicative with a(2^e) = 2^e for e <= 2, a(2^e) = 2^(e+1) for e > 2, a(p^e) = (p-1)*p^(e-1) for p == +-1 (mod 8), a(p^e) = (p+1)*p^(e-1) for p == +-3 (mod 8). - Andrew Howroyd, Jul 15 2018
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ c * n^2, where c = 9/(16*A328895) = 0.644804064282100795... . - Amiram Eldar, Nov 21 2023
