FORMULA
| a(n) = -3*n^2+[1+n*sqrt(3)]^2, where [ ]=floor.
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
| 1=-3*1+[1+sqrt(3)]^2
4=-3*4+[1+2*sqrt(3)]^2
9=-3*9+[1+3*sqrt(3)]^2, etc. Moreover,
for n=1, the unique (j,k) is (2,1): (2+1+1)^2-4*1=12*1;
for n=2, the unique (j,k) is (3,4): (3+4+1)^2-4*4=12*4;
for n=3, the unique (j,k) is (2,9): (2+9+1)^2-4*9=12*9.
