A157795 Largest subset of the discrete triangular grid { (a,b,c): a+b+c=n, a,b,c >= 0 } that does not contain any upward-pointing triangles (i.e. triplets (a+r,b,c), (a,b+r,c), (a,b,c+r) with r positive +0

COMMENT

The n=3 case was posed as a problem by Fujimura. The sequence is related to a certain "hyper-optimistic conjecture" regarding the density Hales-Jewett theorem.
