A092357 Smallest value of x=a+b+c+d (a,b,c,d positive integers) such that there are n different values of m=a^2+b^2=c^2+d^2, or 0 if no such x exists. 2

%N Smallest value of x=a+b+c+d (a,b,c,d positive integers) such that there are n different values of m=a^2+b^2=c^2+d^2, or 0 if no such x exists.

%C This is an infinite sequence because if x=4*p (p=any prime), the number of different n values of m is n=k for p=6k+/-1. I do not know if there is an x for every natural number n.

%e We denote m=a^2+b^2=c^2+d^2 by writing (a,b,c,d). Then:

%e x=18->(1,7,5,5)=50 for n=1

%e x=30->(1,12,8,9)=145 (3,11,7,9)=130 for n=2

%e x=36->(2,14,10,10)=200 (3,14,6,13)=205 (4,13,8,11)=185 for n=3

%Y Cf. A091459 A090073.
