%N A054216 Numbers n such that n^2 is a concatenation of two consecutive decreasing
numbers.
%C A054216 Obviously b(n) = 100^n-10^n+1 = (91,9901,999001,99990001,...) is a subsequence.
Are { b(2), b(4), b(6), b(8) } the only terms of this sequence which
are prime? - M. F. Hasler (www.univ-ag.fr/~mhasler), Mar 30 2008.
Answer: The smallest prime in this sequence which is not of the form
b(n) is A054216(155) = 811451682377384625400019885321 [Max Alekseyev,
Oct 08 2008]. See A145381 for further prime terms.
%C A054216 Other subsequences are: c(n) = ( 10^(6n) - 2*10^(5n) - 10^(3n) - 2*10^n
+ 1 )/3 (n>=2) and d(n) = 33/101*(100^(404n+71)+1)+10^(404n+71) (n>
=0) and e(n) = 33/101*(100^(404n-71)+1)+10^(404n-71) (n>=1). Primes
among these include c(10), c(14) and d(0). - M. F. Hasler (www.univ-ag.fr/
~mhasler), Oct 09 2008
%C A054216 A positive integer n is in this sequence if and only if n^2 == -1 (mod
10^k + 1) where k is the number of decimal digits in n. Note that
k cannot be odd, since in this case 11 divides 10^k + 1 while -1
is not a square modulo 11. [From Max Alekseyev (maxale(AT)gmail.com),

%F A054216 a(n) = sqrt(A054215(n)). - Max Alekseyev, May 14 2007
%e A054216 E.g. '8242' + '8242-1' gives 82428241 which is 9079^2.
%e A054216 Leading zeros are not allowed, which is why c(1)=266327 is not in this
sequence although c(1)^2 = 070930 070929.
