Numbers n such that n = x^2 + y^2 has a solution in nonnegative integers x, y.
Closed under multiplication. - David W. Wilson, Dec 20 2004
Also, numbers whose cubes are the sum of 2 squares. - Artur Jasinski, Nov 21 2006 (Cf. A125110.)
Terms are the squares of smallest radii of circles covering (on a square grid) a number of points equal to the terms of A057961. - Philippe Lallouet (philip.lallouet(AT)wanadoo.fr), Apr 16 2007. [Comment corrected by T. D. Noe, Mar 28 2008]
Numbers with more 4k+1 divisors than 4k+3 divisors. If a(n) is a member of this sequence, then so too is any power of a(n). - Ant King, Oct 05 2010
A000161(a(n)) > 0; A070176(a(n)) = 0. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Feb 04 2012, Aug 16 2011
Numbers that are the norms of Gaussian integers. This sequence has unique factorization; the primitive elements are A055025. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Nov 25 2011
These are numbers n such that all of n's odd prime factors congruent to 3 modulo 4 occur to an even exponent (Fermat's two-squares theorem). - Jean-Christophe Hervé, May 01 2013
Let's say that an integer n divides a lattice if there exists a sublattice of index n. Example: 2, 4, 5 divide the square lattice. The present sequence without 0 is the sequence of divisors of the square lattice. Say that n is a "prime divisor" if the index-n sublattice is not contained in any other sublattice except the original lattice itself. Then A055025 (norms of Gaussian primes) gives the "prime divisors" of the square lattice. - Jean-Christophe Hervé, May 01 2013
For any i,j > 0 a(i)*a(j) is a member of this sequence, since (a^2 + b^2)*(c^2 + d^2) = (a*c + b*d)^2 + (a*d - b*c)^2. - Boris Putievskiy, May 05 2013
The sequence is closed under multiplication. Primitive elements are in A055025. The sequence can be split into 3 multiplicatively closed subsequences: {0}, A004431 and A125853. - Jean-Christophe Hervé, Nov 17 2013
Generalizing Jasinski's comment, same as numbers whose odd powers are the sum of 2 squares, by Fermat's two-squares theorem. - Jonathan Sondow, Jan 24 2014
By the 4 squares theorem, every nonnegative integer can be expressed as the sum of two elements of this sequence. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Mar 28 2015
There are never more than 3 consecutive terms. Runs of 3 terms start at 0, 8, 16, 72, ... (A082982). - Ivan Neretin, Nov 09 2015
Conjecture: barring the 0+2, 0+4, 0+8, 0+16, ... sequence, the sum of 2 distinct terms in this sequence is never a power of 2. - J. Lowell, Jan 14 2022
All the areas of squares whose vertices have integer coordinates. - Neeme Vaino, Jun 14 2023
Numbers represented by the definite binary quadratic forms x^2 + 2nxy + (n^2+1)y^2 for any integer n. This sequence contains the even powers of any integer. An odd power of a number appears only if the number itself belongs to the sequence. The equation given in the comment by Boris Putievskiy 2013 is Brahmagupta's identity with n = 1. It proves that any set of numbers of the form a^2 + nb^2 is closed under multiplication. - Klaus Purath, Sep 06 2023

From the formula it is easy to see that if k is in this sequence, then so are all odd powers of k. - T. D. Noe, Jan 13 2009
Also numbers whose cubes are the sum of two nonzero squares. - Joe Namnath and Lawrence Sze
A line perpendicular to y=mx has its first integral y-intercept at a^2+b^2. The remaining ones for that slope are multiples of that primitive value. - Larry J Zimmermann, Aug 19 2010
The primes in this sequence are sequence A002313.
Complement of A018825; A025426(a(n)) > 0; A063725(a(n)) > 0. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Aug 16 2011
If the two squares are not equal, then any power is still in the sequence: if k = x^2 + y^2 with x != y, then k^2 = (x^2-y^2)^2 + (2xy)^2 and k^3 = (x(x^2-3y^2))^2 + (y(3x^2-y^2))^2, etc. - Carmine Suriano, Jul 13 2012
There are never more than 3 consecutive terms that differ by 1. Triples of consecutive terms that differ by 1 occur infinitely many times, for example, 2(k^2 + k)^2, (k^2 - 1)^2 + (k^2 + 2 k)^2, and (k^2 + k - 1)^2 + (k^2 + k + 1)^2 for any integer k > 1. - Ivan Neretin, Mar 16 2017 [Corrected by Jerzy R Borysowicz, Apr 14 2017]
Number of terms less than 10^k, k=1,2,3,...: 3, 34, 308, 2690, 23873, 215907, 1984228, ... - Muniru A Asiru, Feb 01 2018
The squares in this sequence are the squares of the so-called hypotenuse numbers A009003. - M. F. Hasler, Jun 20 2025

			25 = 3^2 + 4^2, therefore 25 is a term. Note that also 25^3 = 15625 = 44^2 + 117^2, therefore 15625 is a term.

Conjecture: if k is not the sum of 2 squares then sigma(k) == 0 (mod 4) (the converse does not hold, as demonstrated by the entries in A025303). - Benoit Cloitre, May 19 2002
Numbers having some prime factor p == 3 (mod 4) to an odd power. sigma(n) == 0 (mod 4) because of this prime factor. Every k == 3 (mod 4) is a term. First differences are always 1, 2, 3 or 4, each occurring infinitely often. - David W. Wilson, Mar 09 2005

Integers with an equal number of 4k+1 and 4k+3 divisors. - Ant King, Oct 05 2010
A000161(a(n)) = 0; A070176(a(n)) > 0; A046712 is a subsequence. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Feb 04 2012, Aug 16 2011
There are arbitrarily long runs of consecutive terms. Record runs start at 3, 6, 21, 75, ... (A260157). - Ivan Neretin, Nov 09 2015
From Klaus Purath, Sep 04 2023: (Start)
There are no squares in this sequence.
There are also no numbers of the form n^2 + 1 (A002522) or n^2 + 4 (A087475).
Every term a(n) raised to an odd power belongs to the sequence just as every product of an odd number of terms. This is also true for all integer sequences represented by the indefinite binary quadratic forms a(n)*x^2 - y^2. These sequences also do not contain squares. (End)

A025426(a(n)) > 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Aug 16 2011
For the question that is in the link AskNRICH Archive: It is easy to show that (a^2 + b^2)*(c^2 + d^2) = (a*c + b*d)^2 + (a*d - b*c)^2 = (a*d + b*c)^2 + (a*c - b*d)^2. So terms of this sequence can be generated easily. 5 is the least number of the form a^2 + b^2 where a and b distinct positive integers and this is a list sequence. This is the why we observe that there are many terms which are divisible by 5. - Altug Alkan, May 16 2016
Square roots of square terms: {25, 50, 65, 75, 85, 100, 125, 130, 145, 150, 169, 170, 175, 185, 195, 200, 205, 221, 225, 250, 255, 260, 265, 275, 289, 290, 300, 305, ...}. They are also listed by A009177. - Michael De Vlieger, May 16 2016

			50 is a term since 1^2 + 7^2 and 5^2 + 5^2 equal 50.
25 is not a term since though 3^2 + 4^2 = 25, 25 is square, i.e., 0^2 + 5^2 = 25, leaving it with only one possible sum of 2 nonzero squares.
625 is a term since it is the sum of squares of {0,25}, {7,24}, and {15,20}.

Conjecture: for n>1 this is A050804.
From Altug Alkan, Apr 12 2016: (Start)
Conjecture is true. Proof :
If n = a^2 + b^2, where a and b are nonzero integers, then n^3 = (a^2 + b^2)^3 = A^2 + B^2 = C^2 + D^2 where;
A = 2*a^2*b + (a^2-b^2)*b = 3*a^2*b - b^3,
B = 2*a*b^2 - (a^2-b^2)*a = 3*a*b^2 - a^3,
C = 2*a*b^2 + (a^2-b^2)*a = 1*a*b^2 + a^3,
D = 2*a^2*b - (a^2-b^2)*b = 1*a^2*b + b^3.
Obviously, A, B, C, D are always nonzero because a and b are nonzero integers. Additionally, if a^2 is not equal to b^2, then (A, B) and (C, D) are distinct pairs, that is, n^3 can be expressible as a sum of two nonzero squares more than one way. Since we know that n is a sum of two nonzero squares if and only if n^3 is a sum of two nonzero squares (see comment section of A000404); if n^3 is the sum of two nonzero squares in exactly one way, n must be a^2 + b^2 with a^2 = b^2 and n is the sum of two nonzero squares in exactly one way. That is the definition of this sequence, so this sequence is exactly A050804 except "0" that is the first term of this sequence. (End) [Edited by Altug Alkan, May 14 2016]
Conjecture: sequence consists of numbers of form 2*k^2 such that sigma(2*k^2)==3 (mod 4) and k is not divisible by 5.
The reason of related observation is that 5 is the least prime of the form 4*m+1. However, counterexamples can be produced. For example 57122 = 2*169^2 and sigma(57122) == 3 (mod 4) and it is not divisible by 5. - Altug Alkan, Jun 10 2016
For n > 0, this sequence lists numbers n such that n is the sum of two nonzero squares while n^2 is not. - Altug Alkan, Apr 11 2016
2*k^2 where k has no prime factor == 1 (mod 4). - Robert Israel, Jun 10 2016
