a(n) is the integer (reduced squarefree) under the square root obtained when the inverse of a variant of Minkowski's question mark function is applied to the n-th ratio A007305(n+1)/A007306(n+1) in the left-hand subtree of Stern-Brocot tree and zero when it results a rational value.

Note: the underlying function N2Qv (see the Maple code) maps natural numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ..., through all the positive rationals in the open range (0,1): 1/2, 1/3, 2/3, 1/4, 2/5, 3/5, ... bijectively to the union of positive rationals and quadratic surds. A065937 gives similar mapping involving the inverse of the standard Minkowski's question mark function.
Note the symmetry of rows 0; 5,5; 0,2,2,0; 2,3,0,3,3,0,3,2; 5,13,17,2,17,37,5,13,13,5,37,17,2,17,13,5; ... emanating from the symmetry present in A007306.

The first few values for this mapping are N2Qv(1) = 1, N2Qv(2) = (sqrt(5)-1)/2, N2Qv(3) = (sqrt(5)+1)/2, N2Qv(4) = 1/2, N2Qv(5) = sqrt(2)/2, N2Qv(6) = sqrt(2), N2Qv(7) = 2, N2Qv(8) = sqrt(2)-1
