COMMENTS
The corresponding values y = y0(n) are given by A262026(n).
This is a proper subset of A033313 corresponding to D values from d(n) = A007970(n).
For the proof that d(n) = A007970(n), the products of Conway's 2-happy couples, see the W. Lang link under A007970.
If d(n) = A007970(n) is odd (necessarily congruent to 3 modulus 4) then x0(n) is even, and if d(n) is even (necessarily congruent to 0 modulus 8) then x0 is odd.
FORMULA
a(n)^2 - d(n)*y0(n)^2 = +1 with y0(n) = A262026(n) and d(n) = A007970(n). (x0(n) = a(n), y0(n)) are the positive fundamental solutions of this Pell equation x^2 - d*y^2 = +1 with odd y = y0.
EXAMPLE
For the first [d(n), x0(n), y0(n)] see A262026.
