%N Smallest even k such that h(-k) = 2n, where h(D) is the class number of the quadratic field with discriminant D; or 0 if no such k exists.

%C In other words, a(n) is the smallest even k such that Q(sqrt(-k/4)) has class number n; or 0 if no such k exists.

%C Conjecture 1: a(n) > 0 for all n.

%C Conjecture 2: If a(n) > 0 and A060649(2n) > 0, then we have a(n) > A060649(2n). This would imply that all terms in A225060 are odd.

%C Conjecture 3: There exists a positive constant c such that a(n) < c*A060649(2n) for all n.

%C It seems that the ratio a(n)/A060649(2n) reaches its minimum at n = 3. Among the first 250 terms, the maximum of a(n)/A060649(2n) is ~5.3116, which is attained at n = 227.

%e The smallest even k such that h(-k) = 2 is k = 20, so a(1) = 20.

%e The smallest even k such that h(-k) = 4 is k = 56, so a(2) = 56.

%e The smallest even k such that h(-k) = 12 is k = 356, so a(6) = 356.
