FORMULA

{k: 21+k*(k+1)/2 in A000290}

Conjecture: a(n)= +a(n-1) +6*a(n-2) -6*a(n-3) -a(n-4) +a(n-5)

Conjecture: G.f.: x*(-5-2*x-3*x^2+2*x^3+6*x^4)/((x-1) * (x^2-2*x-1) * (x^2+2*x-1)) = (12+(12+25*x)/(x^2-2*x-1)+1/(x-1)+(-1-10*x)/(x^2+2*x-1))/2 .

EXAMPLE

5*(5+1)/2+21 = 6^2. 7*(7+1)/2+21 = 7^2. 40*(40+1)/2+21 = 29^2. 50*(50+1)/2+21 = 36^2.

PROG

(PARI) {for (n=0, 10^9, if ( issquare(n*(n+1)\2 + 21), print1(n, ", ") ) ); }
