Conjecture: (i) a(n) > 0 for all n > 0, and a(n) = 1 only for n = 1, 9, 63, 69, 489, 714, 1089.
(ii) For any positive integer n, there are integers x >= 0 and y > 0 such that n - x^4 - y*(y+1)/2 is twice a square or twice a pentagonal number.
(iii) For any positive integer n, there are integers x >= 0 and y > 0 such that n - 2*x^4 - y*(y+1)/2 is a square or a pentagonal number.

EXAMPLE
|
a(1) = 1 since 1 = 0^4 + 1*2/2 + p_5(0), where p_5(n) denotes the pentagonal number n*(3*n-1)/2.
a(9) = 1 since 9 = 1^4 + 2*3/2 + p_5(2).
a(63) = 1 since 63 = 0^4 + 7*8/2 + p_5(5).
a(69) = 1 since 69 = 2^4 + 7*8/2 + 5^2.
a(489) = 1 since 489 = 3^4 + 12*13/2 + p_5(15).
a(714) = 1 since 714 = 4^4 + 18*19/2 + p_5(14).
a(1089) = 1 since 1089 = 4^4 + 38*39/2 + p_5(8).
