This yields the prime factors of numbers of the form N^2+1, cf. formula in A089120: For n=0,1,2,... check whether N = +/- a(n) [mod 2*A002313(n+1)], if so, then A002313(n+1) is a prime factor of N^2+1.
Obviously, p then divides (2kp +/- a(n))^2+1 for all k >=0 ; in particular it will be the least prime factor of such numbers if there is no earlier match.
Alternatively one could deal separately with the case of odd N, for which p=2 divides N^2+1, and even N, for which only Pythagorean primes A002144(n)=A002313(n+1) can be prime factors of N^2+1.

FORMULA
|
For n>0, A209874(n) = 2*sqrt(-1/4 mod A002144(n)), where sqrt(a mod p) stands for the positive x < p/2 such that x^2=a in Z/pZ.
