A066790 a(n) = least natural number k such that the distance between (n, sigma(n)) and (n+k, sigma(n+k)) is an integer (i.e. k^2+(sigma(n+k)-sigma(n))^2 is a square), if such k exists; = 0 otherwise. +0

COMMENT

Is a(n) nonzero for all n?

EXAMPLE

8^2+(sigma(2+8)-sigma(2))^2 = 17^2, and k = 8 is the least natural number achieving this, so a(2) = 8.
