For any n>0, n^2+1 cannot be a square and thus has an even number of divisors which always include 1 and n^2+1, therefore a(n) is always a positive integer.
Also number of ways to write n^2+1 as n^2+1 = x*y with 1 <= x <= y. - Michel Lagneau, Mar 10 2014
Also number of ways to write arctan(1/n) = arctan(1/x)+arctan(1/y), for integral 0 < n < x < y. - Matthijs Coster, Dec 09 2014
Number of ways that n can be expressed as (j*k-1)/(j+k) with j >= k > n. For any nonnegative integer n, the equation j*k = 1+n*(j+k) always has at least one integer solution with j >= k > n. As j >= k > n, let k=n+c (c is a positive integer), then j=n+(n^2+1)/c; we can easily conclude that c <= n, i.e., for n > 0, a(n) is the number of divisors of (n^2+1) which are <= n. - Zhining Yang, May 18 2023

Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ c * n * log(n), where c = 3/(2*Pi) = 0.477464... (A093582). - Amiram Eldar, Dec 01 2023

EXAMPLE

For n = 7 the a(7) = 3 solutions are (17,12), (32,9), (57,8). For n = 13 the a(13) = 4 solutions are (30,23), (47,18), (98,15), (183,14). - Zhining Yang, May 18 2023
