%N Numbers m with a solution (s,t,k) such that s^2 + t^2 = k*m, s + t = m, 1 <= s <= t and 1 <= k <= m - 1.

%F k is a term <=> Sum_{i=1..floor(k/2)} Sum_{j=1..k-1} KroneckerDelta((i^2 + (k - i)^2)/j, k) > 0.

%F Conjecture: k is a term <=> k * Clausen(k, 1) <> 2 * Clausen(k, 0), (Clausen = A160014). In other words: k is in this sequence iff it is not an odd squarefree number. - _Peter Luschny_, Jun 08 2023

%e 8 is in the sequence since it has the solutions (s,t,k) = (4,4,4) and (2,6,5) such that s^2 + t^2 = k*m, s + t = m, 1 <= s <= t and 1 <= k <= m - 1.

%e 9 is in the sequence since it has the solution (s,t,k) = (3,6,5) such that s^2 + t^2 = k*m, s + t = m, 1 <= s <= t and 1 <= k <= m - 1.
