%C This sequence is interesting since part (i) of the conjecture in A283170 implies that each n = 0,1,2,... can be expressed as the sum of two terms of the current sequence.

%C Clearly, the sequence is a subsequence of A001481. See also A283205 for a similar sequence.

%e a(1) = 0 since 0 = 0^2 + 0^2 with 0 + 2*0 = 0^2.

%e a(2) = 1 since 1 = 1^2 + 0^2 with 1 + 2*0 = 1^2.

%e a(3) = 2 since 2 = (-1)^2 + 1^2 with (-1) + 2*1 = 1^2.

%e a(4) = 4 since 4 = 0^2 + 2^2 with 0 + 2*2 = 2^2.

%e a(5) = 5 since 5 = 2^2 + 1^2 with 2 + 2*1 = 2^2.

%e a(6) = 10 since 10 = 3^2 + (-1)^2 with 3 + 2*(-1) = 1^2.
