By definition, the largest square divisor and squarefree part of these numbers have GCD = 2.
Different from A036966. E.g., 81 is not here because A055229(81) = 1.
Numbers of the form 2^(2*k+1) * m, where k >= 1 and m is an odd number whose prime factorization contains only exponents that are either 1 or even. The asymptotic density of this sequence is (1/12) * Product_{p odd prime} (1-1/(p^2*(p+1))) = A065465 / 11 = 0.08013762179319734335... - Amiram Eldar, Dec 04 2020, Nov 25 2022

EXAMPLE
88 is here because 88 has squarefree part 22, largest square divisor 4, and A055229(88) = gcd(22, 4) = 2.
