%N The odd numbers greater than 1.

%C Last number of the n-th row of the triangle described in A142717.

%C If negated, these are also the values at local minima of the sequence A141620.

%C a(n) is the shortest leg of the n-th Pythagorean triple with consecutive longer leg and hypotenuse. The n-th such triple is given by (2n+1,2n^2+2n, 2n^2+2n+1), so that the longer legs are A046092(n) and the hypotenuses are A099776(n). - _Ant King_, Feb 10 2011

%C Numbers k such that the symmetric representation of sigma(k) has a pair of bars as its ends (cf. A237593). - _Omar E. Pol_, Sep 28 2018

%C Numbers k such that there is a prime knot with k crossings and braid index 2. (IS this true with "prime" removed?) - _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Feb 14 2023

%F a(n) = A005408(n+1) = A000290(n+1) - A000290(n).

%F G.f.: x*(3-x)/(1-x)^2. - _Jaume Oliver Lafont_, Aug 30 2009

%F a(n) = A254858(n-1,2). - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Feb 09 2015

%p seq(n,n=3..200,2); # _Muniru A Asiru_, Sep 28 2018

%t Range[3, 200, 2] (* _Vladimir Joseph Stephan Orlovsky_, Feb 19 2012 *)

%o (GAP) List([3,5..200],n->n); # _Muniru A Asiru_, Sep 28 2018

%o (PARI) a(n)=2*n+1 \\ _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Feb 14 2023

%Y Complement of A004275 and of A004277.

%Y Cf. A000217, A002378, A005408, A007395, A046092, A099776, A237593, A254858.

%Y Essentially the same as A140139, A130773, A062545, A020735, A005818.
