COMMENTS

These pentagonal numbers P(k) that can be represented as the sum of P(i)+j^2, i,j>0, are at k= 2, 6, 9, 10, 13, 17, 21, 22, 24, 26, 29, 34, 35, 38, 41, 45, 46, 53. Are almost all positive integers in this sequence and, if so, what is the largest value in the complement? The largest square in the complement? The largest pentagonal number in the complement?

FORMULA

{A000326(i) + A000290(j) for i, j > 0}. {i(3*i-1)/2 + j^2 for i, j > 0}.

EXAMPLE

Let P(n) = n-th pentagonal number:

a(1) = P(1) + 1^2 = 1 + 1 = 2.

a(2) = P(1) + 2^2 = 1 + 4 = 5 = P(2).

a(3) = P(2) + 1^2 = 5 + 1 = 6.

a(4) = P(2) + 2^2 = 5 + 4 = 9 = 3^2.

a(5) = P(1) + 3^2 = 1 + 9 = 10 = a(P(2)).

a(8) = P(3) + 2^2 = 12 + 4 = 16 = 4^2.

a(10) = P(2) + 4^2 = 5 + 16 = P(3) + 3^2 = 12 + 9 = 21.

a(12) = P(1) + 5^2 = 1 + 25 = P(4) + 2^2 = 22 + 4 = 26 = a(P(3)).

a(16) = P(5) + 1^2 = 35 + 1 = 36 = 6^2.

a(17) = P(1) + 6^2 = 1 + 36 = P(3) + 5^2 = 12 + 25 = 37.

a(25) = P(5) + 4^2 = 35 + 16 = 51 = P(6).

a(30) = P(6) + 3^2 = 51 + 9 = P(5) + 5^2 = 35 + 25 = 60.

a(35) = P(7) + 1^2 = 70 + 1 = P(5) + 6^2 = 35 + 36 = P(4) + 7^2 = 22 + 49 = 71 = a(P(5)).

a(37) = P(6) + 5^2 = 51 + 25 = P(3) + 8^2 = 12 + 64 = 76.

a(41) = P(7) + 4^2 = 70 + 16 = P(4) + 8^2 = 22 + 64 = 86.
