%N Indices of square numbers that are also 18-gonal numbers.

%C Solving the Diophantine equation A051870(m) = m*(8*m-7) = k^2 leads to the entries.

%C k in the sequence and a list of associated m = 0, 1, 4, 16, 121, 529, 4096, 17956, 139129, 609961...

%F a(n) = 34*a(n-2) - a(n-4), n>5. - _R. J. Mathar_, Oct 04 2009

%F G.f.: x^2*(x+1)*(x^2 + 9*x + 1)/((x^2 - 6*x + 1)*(x^2 + 6*x + 1)). - _Colin Barker_, Oct 07 2012
