a(n) = 0 for all n in A303744.
Records occur at n = 2, 3, 7, 15, 63, 240, 480, 720, 960, 1440, 2400, 2880, 3360, 4032, 5040, ... - Peter Kagey, Nov 18 2020
EXAMPLE
For n = 63, the a(63) = 5 solutions are
8^2 - 1^2 = 64 - 1,
12^2 - 9^2 = 144 - 81,
32^2 - 31^2 = 1024 - 961,
4^3 - 1^3 = 64 - 1, and
2^6 - 1^6 = 64 - 1.
