COMMENT

Is this a permutation of the positive integers?

Conjectures from N. J. A. Sloane (njas(AT)research.att.com), Apr 22, 2005:

"Call a number "postponed" if it cannot be placed right away, that is, if it is relatively prime to the numbers in the previous row. Then I conjecture that:

"(1) a number n >= 4 is postponed iff n is prime,

"(2) every number appears,

"(3) the primes appear in order,

"(4) 2p (p prime) will appear in one row and p will appear in the next row,

"(5) let c(i) = A018252(i) be the i-th nonprime and define a sequence k(n) [see A104655], n >= 3, by k(3) = 4 and for n >= 4, n*(n+1)/2 = pi( floor( c(k(n-1))/2 ) ) + k(n). Then the final term in row n, for n >= 3, is c(k(n)) [A104656]."

EXAMPLE

Triangle begins:

1

2 3

4 6 8

9 10 12 14

5 7 15 16 18

20 21 22 24 25 26

11 13 27 28 30 32 33

...

7 is in the 5th row because it does not occur earlier and 14 is in the 4th row.
