COMMENTS
Subset of A134407.
If f(x) = x^2 + 1 and g(c,y) = c*y^2 + y + c then the algebraic substitution of g for x gives a factorization: f(g(c,y)) = (y^2 + 1)*(c^2*y^2 + c^2 + 2*c*y + 1). Since both factors of f(g(c,y)) are integers greater than one, f(g(c,y)) is a composite number.
The numbers are necessarily even terms from A134407 since for odd n = 2c + 1 one has the "forbidden" decomposition with z = 1. - M. F. Hasler, Oct 04 2014
