COMMENTS

The identity (14*n^2+1)^2-(49*n^2+7)*(2*n)^2=1 can be written as a(n)^2-A158481(n)*A005843(n)^2=1.

Sequence found by reading the line from 15, in the direction 15, 57,..., in the square spiral whose vertices are the generalized enneagonal numbers  numbers A118277. Also sequence found by reading the same line in the square spiral whose edges have length A195019 and whose vertices are the numbers A195020. - Omar E. Pol, Sep 13 2011
