COMMENT

Conjecture: a(n) = m^2 iff m mod 3 > 0.

a(n) is a square iff n is congruent to {1, 4} mod 9. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Aug 30 2004

FORMULA

a(9*n+1) = (3*n+1)^2; a(9*n+4) = (3*n+2)^2. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Aug 30 2004

G.f.: x*(1+x^4-x^9+x^10)/((1+x+x^2)*(1+x^3+x^6)*(1-x)^3). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Aug 30 2004

EXAMPLE

a(2) = a(1) + #{1} = 1 + 1 = 2;

a(3) = a(2) + #{1} = 2 + 1 = 3;

a(4) = a(3) + #{1} = 3 + 1 = 4;

a(5) = a(4) + #{1,4} = 4 + 2 = 6;

a(6) = a(5) + #{1,4} = 6 + 2 = 8;

a(7) = a(6) + #{1,4} = 8 + 2 = 10;

a(8) = a(7) + #{1,4} = 10 + 2 = 12;

a(9) = a(8) + #{1,4} = 12 + 2 = 14;

a(10) = a(9) + #{1,4} = 14 + 2 = 16;

a(11) = a(10) + #{1,4,16} = 16 + 3 = 19;

a(12) = a(11) + #{1,4,16} = 19 + 3 = 22.
