COMMENTS
Prime numbers of this sequence are congruent to {2,3} modulo 5.
EXAMPLE
The only solution of the equation x^2 + y^2 + 3*x*y = 0 in Z/2Z is (0,0).
4 is not in the sequence because 0^2 + 2^2 + 3*2*0 = 4 == 0 (mod 4). 5 is not in the sequence because 1^2 + 1^2 + 3*1*1 = 5 == 0 (mod 5). 10 is not in the sequence because 2^2 + 2^2 + 3*2*2 = 20 == 0 (mod 10). - R. J. Mathar, Jun 16 2019
