Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Nonnegative numbers represented by the indefinite quadratic form 3x^2+13xy-3y^2.
%C Discriminant 205.
%C 12*a(n) has the form z^2 - 205*y^2, where z = 6*x+13*y. In fact, this is a particular case of the following identity on the numbers of the form a*x^2+b*x*y+c*y^2: 4*a*(a*x^2+b*x*y+c*y^2) = (2*a*x+b*y)^2-(b^2 -4*a*c)*y^2. [_Bruno Berselli_, Jun 20 2014]
