Write 0,1,2,... in clockwise spiral; sequence gives numbers on positive y axis.
Central terms of the triangle in A126890. - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Dec 30 2006
If A=[A007742] n(4n+1) (for n>0, 5,18,39,68,...,); Y=[A157336] 64*n+8 (72,136,200,...,); X=[A157337] 128*n^2+32*n+1 (161,577,1249,...,) ; , we have for all terms, Pell's equation X^2-A*Y^2=1. Example: 161^2-5*72^2=1; 577^2-18*136^2=1; 1249^2-39*200^2=1; 2177^2-68*264^2=1. [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Feb 27 2009]
