%N First differences of A051870: 16*n + 1.

%C The identity (16*n+1)^2 - (16*n^2+2*n)*(4)^2 = 1 can be written as a(n+1)^2 - A158056(n)*(4)^2 = 1. - _Vincenzo Librandi_, Feb 09 2012

%C This sequence gives the 18-gonal (or octadecagonal) gnomonic numbers. Name suggested by _Todd Silvestri_, Nov 22 2014

%C All elements are odd and contains subsequence A249356. - _Todd Silvestri_, Nov 22 2014
