%N A001653 Numbers n such that 2*n^2 - 1 is a square.
%C A001653 Consider all Pythagorean triples (X,X+1,Z) ordered by increasing Z; sequence
gives Z values.
%C A001653 The defining equation is X^2 + (X+1)^2 = Z^2, which when doubled gives
2Z^2 = (2X+1)^2 + 1. So the sequence gives Z's such that 2Z^2 = odd
square + 1.
%C A001653 (x,y)=(a(n),a(n+1)) are the solutions with x<y of x/(yz)+y/(xz)+z/(xy)=3

that is tangent to the x- and y-axes. Such a circle has coordinates
equal to its radius. Let C(0) be the T-circle with radius 1. Then
