A180495 Coefficient a(n) of three-term recurrence relation for solutions of the equation in integers x^2-n*floor(x/sqrt(n))^2=1 such that x(i+2)=a(n)*x(i+1)-x(i). n is a nonsquare number. 2

%N Coefficient a(n) of three-term recurrence relation for solutions of the equation in integers x^2-n*floor(x/sqrt(n))^2=1 such that x(i+2)=a(n)*x(i+1)-x(i). n is a nonsquare number.

%C a(n) is twice the corresponding term of sequence A033313.

%C Nonsquare values belong to sequence A000037. The equation is of a Pell type.

%e For n=3 a(3)=4 since equation x^2-3*floor(x/sqrt(3))^2=1 has the following solutions: x=1, 2, 7, 26, 97, ... for which x(i+2)=4x(i+1)-x(i).

%Y Cf. A000037, A033313.
