Comments

These integers yield norm-Euclidean real quadratic fields. There are other positive integers, e.g., D=14 or D=69, for which Q[sqrt(D)] is Euclidean, but for a Euclidean function different from the field norm.

For further references see sequence A048981 which also lists negative D corresponding to (complex) norm-Euclidean fields. - M. F. Hasler, Jan 26 2014
