COMMENT

a(n) gives minimal (positive) solution of Pell equation b(n)^2 - D(n)*a(n)^2 = -4 with D(n)= A077426(n). The companion sequence is a(n)=A078356(n).

For the general solution of Pell equation b^2 - D(n)*a^2 = -4 see a comment in A078356 (with a and b interchanged).

For the conversion of the (x,y) values of Perron's table to the (b(n),a(n)) values see a A078356 comment.
