%N Largest number k such that the greatest prime factor of k^2+1 is A002313(n), the n-th prime not congruent to 3 mod 4.

%C For any prime p, there are finitely many k such that k^2+1 has p as its largest prime factor.

%C Numbers k such that k^2+1 is p-smooth appear in arctan-relations for the computation of Pi (for example, Machin's identity Pi/4 = 4*arctan(1/5) - arctan(1/239)), see the fxtbook link. [_Joerg Arndt_, Jul 02 2012]
