Let {x(n)} be a sequence defined by x(0) = 0, x(1) = 1, x(n) = m*x(n-1) + x(n-2) for k >= 2. For primes p, we have (a) p divides x(p-((m^2+4)/p); (b) x(p) == ((m^2+4)/p) (mod p), where (D/p) is the Kronecker symbol. This sequence gives composite numbers k such that gcd(k, m^2+4) = 1 and that a condition similar to (a) holds for k, where m = 2.
If k is not required to be coprime to m^2 + 4 (= 8), then there are 1232 such k <= 10^5 and 4973 such k <= 10^6, while there are only 83 terms <= 10^5 and 245 terms <= 10^6 in this sequence.
Also composite numbers k coprime to 8 such that A214028(k) divides k - Kronecker(8,k).

EXAMPLE
Pell(36) = 21300003689580 is divisible by 35, so 35 is a term.
