10, 26, 50, 65, 82, 122, 145, 170, 226, 290, 325, 362, 442, 485, 530, 626, 730, 785, 842, 901, 962, 1025, 1090, 1157, 1226, 1370, 1445, 1522, 1682, 1765, 1850, 1937, 2026, 2117, 2210, 2305, 2402, 2501, 2602, 2705, 2810, 3026, 3250, 3365, 3482, 3601, 3722, 3845

Comments

Square roots of these numbers are quadratic irrationals and corresponding chain fraction representations are periodic: sqrt(10) = [3;{2,3}], sqrt(26) = [5;{2,5}], sqrt(50) = [7;{2,7}], ..., where {} is denoted a period (we write {6} == {2,3}).

Formula

a(n) = 1 + A134407(n)^2. - R. J. Mathar, Oct 13 2019

Example

10 is a term because 10 = 3^2 + 1 is composite,
26 is a term because 26 = 5^2 + 1 is composite,
50 is a term because 50 = 7^2 + 1 is composite.

Maple
