For the discriminant of the quadratic field Q(sqrt(n)), see A037449.
a(n) is the smallest positive N such that ((-n)/k) = ((-n)/(k mod N)) for every odd k that is coprime to n, where ((-n)/k) is the Jacobi symbol. As we have Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions, a(n) is also the smallest positive N such that ((-n)/p) = ((-n)/(p mod N)) for every odd prime p that is not a factor of n. - Jianing Song, May 16 2024

FORMULA

Let b(n) = A007913(n), then a(n) = b(n) if b(n) == 3 (mod 4) and 4*b(n) otherwise. - Jianing Song, May 16 2024
