COMMENTS

Conjecture: these numbers do not occur in A139491.

Complement sequence to A024352.

All odd numbers 2k+1 for k>0 can be represented by (k+1)^2-k^2. All multiples 4k for k>1 can be represented by (k+1)^2-(k-1)^2. No number of the form 4k+2 is the difference of two squares because, modulo 4, the differences of two squares are 0, 1, or 3. [From T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Apr 27 2009]
