A387128 First numbers A = a(n) of two numbers (A, B) such that the sums 2*A^2 + B^2 = p == 3 mod 8, where p = A007520(n) and B = A387129(n).

Comments

Prime numbers p congruent to 3 mod 8 can be written as the sum of twice the square of an integer A and of the square of another integer B, i.e., 2*A^2 + B^2 = p, where A = a(n), B = A387129(n), and p = A007520(n) == 3 mod 8.
This representation is unique, i.e., for a given n, there are no other integer values of A(n) and B(n) such that p(n) = 2 * A(n)^2 + B(n)^2 where p(n) = A007520(n), the 3 mod 8 prime numbers.
For all n, A = a(n) and B = A387129(n) are always odd.
Terms are ordered according to increasing order of A007520(n).

Examples

			1 belongs to the sequence as 2 * 1^2 + 1^2 = 3.
5 belongs to the sequence as 2 * 5^2 + 21^2 = 491.
