Comments

a(A067201(n)) = 1, but these are not the only cases where a(k) = 1.

Formula

G.f. sum(k=0..infinity, sum(i in S(k), x^i)/(1 - x^(k^2+2))) where S(k) = {i : 0 <= i < k^2 + 2, i^2 + 2 == 0 mod k^2 + 2}.

Example

For n=2, n^2+2=6 is divisible by 0^2+2=2, 1^2+2=3 and 2^2+2=6 so a(2)=3.

Maple

a:= n -> nops(select(t -> issqr(t-2), numtheory:-divisors(n^2+2))):
seq(a(n), n=0..100);
