Where numbers m such that 5^m - 4^m is not squarefree: numbers of the form i*a(j) for i >= 1.

Numbers m such that (k+1)^m - k^m is not squarefree, but (k+1)^d - k^d is squarefree for every proper divisor d of m:

The smallest square of 5^m - 4^m as defined above are 9, 121, 361, 3721, 841. - Robert Price, Mar 07 2017

a(6) <= 465. 465, 955, 1027 are terms. - Chai Wah Wu, Jul 20 2020

Examples

			2 is in this sequence because 5^1 - 4^1 = 1 is squarefree where 1 is proper divisor of 2 and 5^2 - 4^2 = 9 = 3^2 is not squarefree.
