A225771 Numbers that are positive integer divisors of 1 + 2*x^2 where x is a positive integer. 1

%N Numbers that are positive integer divisors of 1 + 2*x^2 where x is a positive integer.

%C This sequence is case k=2, A008784 is case k=1, A004613 is case k=4 of divisors of 1 + k*x^2.

%C From Peter M. Chema, May 08 2017 (Start): Also gives the body diagonals of all primitive Pythagorean quadruples that define square prisms, with sides [b, b, and c] and diagonal d, such that 2*b^2 + c^2 = d^2. E.g., sides [2, 2, 1], diagonal 3 = a(2); [4, 4, 7], 9 = a(3); [6, 6, 7], 11 = a(4); [12, 12, 1], 17 = a(5); [6, 6, 17] 19 = a(6); [10, 10, 23], 27 = a(7); [20, 20, 17], 33 = a(8); [24, 24, 23], 41 = a(9)... (a subsequence of A096910) (End)

%C Editorial note: The above comment would be better expressed by talking about right tetrahedra (also called trirectangular tetrahedra), that is, tetrahedra with vertices (b 0 0), (0 c 0), (0 0 d) (here b=c). These are the correct generalizations of Pythagorean triangles. _N. J. A. Sloane_, May 08 2017

%C From _Frank M Jackson_, May 23 2017: (Start)

%C Starting at a(2)=3, this gives the shortest side of a primitive Heronian triangle whose perimeter is 4 times its shortest side. Aka a primitive integer Roberts triangle (see Buchholz link).

%C Also odd and primitive terms generated by x^2 + 2y^2 with x>0 and y>0.

%C Also integers with all prime divisors congruent to 1 or 3 (mod 8). (End)
