COMMENTS
Integers n such that the elliptic curve y^2 = x^3 + (n^2+1)*x^2 + n^2*x has a positive rank.
EXAMPLE
a(1)=7 because n=7 is the smallest factor n for which both b^2+h^2 and b^2+(n*h)^2 are squares. The corresponding values of base b and height h are b=A117320(1)=12 and h=A117321(1)=5. 12^2+5^2=169=13^2 and 12^2+(7*5)^2=1369=37^2 are both squares.
