COMMENTS
Numbers n such that sum of divisors of n (A000203) is odd.
Also the numbers with an odd number of run sums (trapezoidal arrangements, number of ways of being written as the difference of two triangular numbers). - Ron Knott, Jan 27 2003
Pell(n)*Sum_{k|n} 1/Pell(k) is odd, where Pell(n) is A000129(n). - Paul Barry, Oct 12 2005
Number of odd divisors of n (A001227) is odd. - Vladeta Jovovic, Aug 28 2007
A071324(a(n)) is odd. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 03 2008
Sigma(a(n)) = A000203(a(n)) = A152677(n). - Jaroslav Krizek, Oct 06 2009
Numbers n such that sum of odd divisors of n (A000593) is odd. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 05 2016
A187793(a(n)) is odd. - Timothy L. Tiffin, Jul 18 2016
If k is odd (k = 2m+1 for m >= 0), then 2^k = 2^(2m+1) = 2*(2^m)^2. If k is even (k = 2m for m >= 0), then 2^k = 2^(2m) = (2^m)^2. So, the powers of 2 sequence (A000079) is a subsequence of this one. - Timothy L. Tiffin, Jul 18 2016
Numbers n such that A175317(n) = Sum_{d|n} pod(d) is odd, where pod(m) = the product of divisors of m (A007955). - Jaroslav Krizek, Dec 28 2016
Positions of zeros in A292377 and A292383, positions of ones in A286357 and A292583. (See A292583 for why.) - Antti Karttunen, Sep 25 2017
Numbers of the form A000079(i)*A016754(j), i,j>=0. - R. J. Mathar, May 30 2020
Equivalently, numbers whose odd part is square. Cf. A042968. - Peter Munn, Jul 14 2020
These are the Heinz numbers of the partitions counted by A119620. - Gus Wiseman, Oct 29 2021
Numbers m whose abundance, A033880(m), is odd. - Peter Munn, May 23 2022
Numbers with an odd number of middle divisors (cf. A067742). - Omar E. Pol, Aug 02 2022

FORMULA
a(n) is asymptotic to c*n^2 with c = 2/(1+sqrt(2))^2 = 0.3431457.... - Benoit Cloitre, Sep 17 2002
In particular, a(n) = c*n^2 + O(n). - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jan 11 2013
a(A003152(n)) = n^2; a(A003151(n)) = 2*n^2. - Enrique Pérez Herrero, Oct 09 2013
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = Pi^2/4. - Amiram Eldar, Jun 28 2020
