FORMULA
| a(n) = -5*n^2+[1+n*sqrt(5)]^2, where [ ]=floor.
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
| 4=-5*1+[1+sqrt(5)]^2,
5=-5*4+[1+2*sqrt(5)]^2,
4=-5*9+[1+3*sqrt(5)]^2, etc. Moreover,
for n=1, the unique (j,k) is (1,4): (1+4+1)^2-4*4=20*1;
for n=2, the unique (j,k) is (4,5): (4+5+1)^2-4*5=20*4;
for n=3, the unique (j,k) is (9,4): (9+4+1)^2-4*4=20*9.
