COMMENTS
If p is a prime, then A001076(p)^2==1 (mod p).
This sequence contains the composite integers for which the congruence holds.
The generalized Lucas sequence of integer parameters (a,b) defined by U(n+2)=a*U(n+1)-b*U(n) and U(0)=0, U(1)=1, satisfies the identity U^2(p)==1 (mod p) whenever p is prime and b=-1,1.
For a=4, b=-1, U(n) recovers A001076(n).
