%N A077762 Number of ways of pairing the squares of the numbers 1 to n with the
squares of the numbers n+1 to 2n such that each pair sums to a prime.
Because an odd square must always be added to an even square to obtain
a prime, this sequence is the product of A077763 and A077764.
%C A077762 Apparently, for n>11, there seems always to be a pairing possible. Note
that all primes have the 4k+1 form. By the 4k+1 theorem, such a prime
has a unique representation as the sum of two squares.

%F A077762 a(n)=permanent(m), where the n-by-n matrix m is defined m(i,j) = 1 or
0, depending on whether i^2+(j+n)^2 is prime or composite, respectively.
