Square Divisiblity (Posted on 2018-06-17) Difficulty: 3 of 5
This problem was inspired by the infamous problem 6 in the 1988 Math Olympiad:

When is a2+b2 divisible by (ab+1)2 where a and b are non-negative integers?

A computer search finds only cases where a or b is zero and a^2 + b^2 is of course divisible by 1, up to a total of a+b in the thousands.
