COMMENT
|
Every positive integer occurs exactly once and every pair of rows are mutually interspersed. That is, beginning at the first term of any row having greater initial term than that of another row, all the following terms individually separate the individual terms of the other row.

FORMULA
|
(1) Column 1 is the sequence {[sn]} where 1/r+1/s=1. The numbers in all the other columns, arranged in increasing order, form the sequence {[r*n]}. (2) Every row satisfies these recurrences: x(n+1)=[r*x(n)] and x(n+2)=6*x(n+1)-x(n).

EXAMPLE
|
Northwest corner:
1 5 29 169 985
2 11 64 373 2174
3 17 99 577 3363
4 23 134 781 4552
6 34 198 1154 6726.
In row 1, we have 5=[r], 29=[5r], 169=[29r]; each new
row starts with the least "new" number n, followed
by [nr], [[nr]r], [[[nr]r]r] and so on.
