%C A002061 Ignoring the first ones, these are rectangular parallelepipeds with integer

sqrt[a^2+b^2+c^2] = d, an integer; then this sequence: sqrt[n^2+(n+1)^2+(n(n+1))^2]=
2T_n+1 is the first and most simple example. Problem: Are there any
integer diagonals which do not satisfy the following general formula?
sqrt[(kn)^2+(k(n+(2m+1)))^2+(k(n(n+(2m+1))+4T_m))^2]=kd where (m=0,
