COMMENT
|
These are the natural numbers with an even number of divisors. The number of divisors is odd for the complementary sequence, the squares (sequence A000290) and the numbers for which the number of divisors is divisible by 3 is sequence A059269. - Ola Veshta (olaveshta(AT)my-deja.com), Apr 04 2001
Also, a(n) = largest integer m not equal to n such that n = (floor(n^2/m) + m)/2. - Alexander R. Povolotsky (pevnev(AT)juno.com), Feb 10 2008

a(n) = n + [1/2 + sqrt(n)].
Another formula: a(n) = n + [ sqrt( n + [ sqrt n ] ) ].
