%N Positive integers k such that x^2 - 5xy + y^2 + k = 0 has integer solutions.

%C See comments on method used in A084917.

%C The equivalent sequence for x^2 - 3xy + y^2 + k = 0 is A031363.

%C The equivalent sequence for x^2 - 4xy + y^2 + k = 0 is A084917.

%C Positive numbers of the form 3x^2 - 7y^2. - _Jon E. Schoenfield_, Jun 03 2022

%e 12 is in the sequence because x^2 - 5xy + y^2 + 12 = 0 has integer solutions, for example, (x, y) = (2, 8).
