%N Values of c in a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where b - a = 17 and gcd(a,b,c)=1.

%C b - a = 17 is the third term in A058529 The values of 'a' are defined by A117473

%F c(1)=25, c(2)=53, c(3)=137, c(4)=305, c(n) = 6*c(n-2) - c(n-4), if c > 4

%F G.f.: -x*(13*x^3+13*x^2-53*x-25) / ((x^2-2*x-1)*(x^2+2*x-1)). [_Colin Barker_, Dec 17 2012]

%e c(5) = 6*137 - 25 = 797

%e 555*555 + 572*572 = 797*797, where 572-555 = 17 and gcd(555,572,797)=1
