The above definition is equivalent to this: least
positive integer k such that one of the following holds:
(1) there is an integer J such that
n*k^2 < J^2 < (n+1)*k^2; or
(2) there is an integer J such that (n+1)*k^2 = J^2.
Note that (1) is equivalent to the existence of a rational
number H with denominator k such that
n < H^2 < n+1.

Positions of 2n+1: A000290.
