COMMENT

a(1) = 1, a(n) = least number such that every difference a(i)-a(j) is a distinct even number. - Amarnath Murthy (amarnath_murthy(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 07 2004

FORMULA

a(n) = 2*A005282(n)-1. (David Wasserman)

EXAMPLE

5 is not in the sequence since 5+1 is already obtainable from 3+3, 9 is excluded since 1, 3 and 7 are in the sequence, and would collide with 1+9

MATHEMATICA

seq2={1, 3}; Do[le=Length[seq2]; t=Last[seq2]+2; While[Length[Expand[(Plus @@ (x^seq2) + x^t)^2]] < Pochhammer[3, le]/le!, t=t+2]; AppendTo[seq2, t], {20}]; Print@seq2
