%N A047896 For given n, consider all 4-tuples P = (a,b,c,d) with P.P = n; let d
= squared distance to the line OP from the closest point of Z^n (excluding
the endpoints); sequence gives max_P d*n.
%C A047896 A form of generalized g.c.d. of 4 numbers.
%D A047896 N. J. A. Sloane and V. Vaishampayan, in preparation, 2001.
%e A047896 n=10, best P is (1,1,2,2), closest point of Z^4 to OP is (0,0,1,1) at
squared distance d = 2/5, so a(10) = 10*2/5 = 4.
%Y A047896 Cf. A059804, A059774.
