%N Primes == +-1 (mod 8).

%C Primes p such that 2 is a quadratic residue mod p.

%C Also primes p such that p divides 2^((p-1)/2) - 1. - _Cino Hilliard_, Sep 04 2004

%C A001132 is exactly formed by the prime numbers of A118905: in fact at first every prime p of A118905 is p = u^2 - v^2 + 2uv, with for example u odd and v even so that p - 1 = 4u'(u' + 1) + 4v'(2u' + 1 - v') when u = 2u' + 1 and v = 2v'. u'(u' + 1) is even and v'(2u' + 1 - v') is always even. At second hand if p = 8k +- 1, p has the shape x^2 - 2y^2; letting u = x - y and v = y, comes p = (x - y)^2 - y^2 + 2(x - y)y = u^2 - v^2 + 2uv so p is a sum of the two legs of a Pythagorean triangle. - _Richard Choulet_, Dec 16 2008

%C These are also the primes of form x^2 - 2y^2, excluding 2. See A038873. - _Tito Piezas III_, Dec 28 2008

%C Primes p such that p^2 mod 48 = 1. - _Gary Detlefs_, Dec 29 2011

%C Primes in A047522. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Jan 07 2012

%C This sequence gives the odd primes p which satisfy C(p, x = 0) = +1, where C(p, x) is the minimal polynomial of 2*cos(Pi/p) (see A187360). For the proof see a comment on C(n, 0) in A230075. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Oct 24 2013

%C Each a(n) corresponds to precisely one primitive Pythagorean triangle. For a proof see the W. Lang link, also for a table. See also the comment by _Richard Choulet_ above, where the case u even and v odd has not been considered. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Feb 17 2015

%C Primes p such that p^2 mod 16 = 1. - _Vincenzo Librandi_, May 23 2016

%C Rational primes that decompose in the field Q(sqrt(2)). - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Dec 26 2017

%Y For primes p such that x^m = 2 (mod p) has a solution see A001132 (for m = 2), A040028 (m = 3), A040098 (m = 4), A040159 (m = 5), A040992 (m = 6), A042966 (m = 7), A045315 (m = 8), A049596 (m = 9), A049542 (m = 10) - A049595 (m = 63). Jeff Lagarias (lagarias(AT)umich.edu) points out that all these sequences are different, although this may not be apparent from looking just at the initial terms.

%Y Agrees with A038873 except for initial term.

%Y Cf. A118905, A010051.

%Y Union of A007519 and A007522.
