FORMULA
Solutions to c(x^2) = y^2: the values of y^2, where c(j) is the j-th composite number; see program.
EXAMPLE
a(4) = 1225 = 35^2 = c(1024) = c(32^2).
MATHEMATICA
c[x_] := FixedPoint[x+PrimePi[ # ]+1&, x]; Do[s=c[n^2]; If[IntegerQ[Sqrt[s]], Print[s]], {n, 1, 1000000}]
PROG
(PARI) lista(cmax) = {my(k = 0); forcomposite(c = 1, , k++; if(issquare(k) && issquare(c), print1(c, ", "))); } \\ Amiram Eldar, Oct 11 2024
