Estermann proved that a(n) ~ kn with k = 1.117...; more precisely, there are cx + O(x^(2/3) log x) terms up to x, where c = 1/k = Product (1 - 2/p^2) where the product is over primes p which are 1 mod 4. Heath-Brown improves the error term to O(x^(7/12) log x). - Charles R Greathouse IV, Oct 16 2017, corrected by Amiram Eldar, Jul 08 2020

There are 89489 terms up to 10^5, 894856 terms up to 10^6, 8948417 up to 10^7, 89484102 up to 10^8, and 894841314 up to 10^9. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Nov 26 2017, corrected and extended by Amiram Eldar, Jul 08 2020

Formula

Numbers k such that A059592(k) = 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Nov 08 2006

Example

10 is a member because 10^2 + 1 = 100 + 1 = 101 is squarefree.
Reasons why certain numbers are excluded: 7^2+1 = 2*5^2, 18^2+1 = 13*5^2, 32^2+1 = 41*5^2, 38^2+1 = 5*17^2, 41^2+1 = 2*29^2, 43^2+1 = 74*5^2, 57^2+1 = 130*5^2, 82^2+1 = 269*5^2. - Neven Juric, Oct 06 2008
