COMMENTS
m is a term if and only if m = 2^(2a_0+1)*p_1^(2a_1)*p_2^(2a_2)*...*p_k^(2a_k), where a_i are nonnegative integers and p_i are primes of the form 4k+3. - Chai Wah Wu, Feb 27 2016
m is a term if and only if for all odd q > 1, m^q is the sum of two nonzero squares in exactly one way. - Chai Wah Wu, Feb 28 2016
Numbers n such that n is the sum of two nonzero squares while n^2 is not. - Altug Alkan, Apr 11 2016
FORMULA
n such that A084888(n) = 1.
EXAMPLE
E.g. 32^3 = 128^2 + 128^2. Is there an example using different squares?
No: If n^3 has only one representation as n^3 = a^2+b^2 with 0<a<=b, then a=b. - Jonathan Vos Post, Feb 02 2011
