No additional terms < 10^11. - Harvey P. Dale, Oct 21 2019

From David A. Corneth, Oct 21 2019: (Start)

No additional terms < 10^31.

The final digits of 1^2, 2^2, 3^2 and 9^2 are 1, 4, 9 and 1 respectively, of which only 1 and 9 are allowed. So a term must end in 1, 3 or 9.

Checking two digits, we see that only numbers ending in 11, 23, 39 or 99 squared have the last two digits allowed.

Similar for three digits, a term must end in one of 111, 911, 123, 323, 923, 139, 239, 339 or 999.

We can recursively see how a number must end and hence reduce the numbers that must be checked. For example, we only have to check 4204352 31-digit numbers to know there are no 31-digit terms.
