OEIS A204061
Paul D. Hanna’s entry defines a Pell-square exponential generating series and conjectures that its coefficients reduce modulo five to the indicator of indices with no digit two in base five. The formal statement reads the exponential in the 5-adic field and proves 5-adic integrality and this residue law; integrality over the ordinary integers is outside its scope.
