COMMENT

Sums of squares of two consecutive elements multiplied (or divided) by 2 is always a perfect square. In general numbers represented by the quadratic form a(n)=(2*i*n+j)^2-2*i^2 for any i and j have 2(a(n)^2 + a(n+1)^2)) and (a(n)^2 + a(n+1)^2)/2 as perfect squares: in this case i=j=1.

The elements of this sequence may be seen to be 2 less than the odd squares. As such they run parallel to those in the square spiral as well as the Ulam square spiral. - Stuart M. Ellerstein (ellerstein(AT)aol.com), Oct 01 2002
