FORMULA
a(n) = 1 + 4*{ [n/1] - [n/3] + [n/5] - [n/7] + ... }. - Gauss
a(n) = 1 + 4*Sum_{ k = 0 .. [sqrt(n)] } [ sqrt(n-k^2) ]. - Liouville (?)
a(n) - Pi*n = O(sqrt(n)) (Gauss). a(n) - Pi*n = O(n^c), c = 23/73 + epsilon ~ 0.3151 (Huxley). If a(n) - Pi*n = O(n^c) then c > 1/4 (Landau, Hardy). It is conjectured that a(n) - Pi*n = O(n^(1/4 + epsilon)) for all epsilon > 0.
a(n) = A014198(n) + 1.
a(n) = A122510(2,n). - R. J. Mathar, Apr 21 2010
a(n) = 1 + sum((floor(1/(k+1)) + 4 * floor(cos(Pi * sqrt(k))^2) - 4 * floor(cos(Pi * sqrt(k/2))^2) + 8 * sum((floor(cos(Pi * sqrt(i))^2) * floor(cos(Pi * sqrt(k-i))^2)), i = 1..floor(k/2))), k = 1..n). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Jan 10 2013
G.f.: theta_3(0,x)^2/(1-x) where theta_3 is a Jacobi theta function. - Robert Israel, Sep 29 2014
EXAMPLE
a(0) = 1 (counting origin).
a(1) = 5 since 4 points lie on the circle of radius sqrt(1) + origin.
a(2) = 9 since 4 lattice points lie on the circle w/radius = sqrt(2) (along diagonals) + 4 points inside the circle + origin. - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Jan 10 2013
