A146984 List of integer-valued contraharmonic means (u^2+v^2)/(u+v) of two positive integers u and v (with u < v) ordered by increasing u and increasing v (u = 2, 3, 4, ...; v = u+1, u+2, ...).

Formula

The contraharmonic mean of u and v is (u^2+v^2)/(u+v).

Example

a(1) = (2^2+6^2)/(2+6) = 5, a(2) = (3^2+6^2)/(3+6) = 5, a(3) = (3^2+15^2)/(3+15) = 13.

Maple

K:=100; t1:=[];
for u from 1 to K-1 do for v from u+1 to 2*u^2-u do
if (u^2+v^2) mod (u+v) = 0 then t1:=[op(t1), (u^2+v^2)/(u+v)]; fi;
