A088370 Triangle T(n,k), read by rows, where the n-th row is a binary arrangement of the numbers 1 through n. 7

%N Triangle T(n,k), read by rows, where the n-th row is a binary arrangement of the numbers 1 through n.

%C The n-th row differs from the prior row only by the presence of n. See A088371 for the positions in the n-th row that n is inserted.

%C From _Clark Kimberling_, Aug 02 2007: (Start)

%C At A131966, this sequence is cited as the fractal sequence of the Cantor set C.

%C Recall that C is the set of fractions in [0,1] whose base 3 representation consists solely of 0's and 2's.

%C Arrange these fractions as follows:

%C 0

%C 0, .2

%C 0, .02, .2

%C 0, .02, .2, .22

%C 0, .002, .02, .2, .22, etc.

%C Replace each number x by its order of appearance, counting each distinct predecessor of x only once, getting

%C 1;

%C 1, 2;

%C 1, 3, 2;

%C 1, 3, 2, 4;

%C 1, 5, 3, 2, 4;

%C Concatenate these to get the current sequence, which is a fractal sequence as defined in "Fractal sequences and interspersions".

%C One property of such a sequence is that it properly contains itself as a subsequence (infinitely many times). (End)

%C Row n contains one of A003407(n) non-averaging permutations of [n], i.e., a permutation of [n] without 3-term arithmetic progressions. - _Alois P. Heinz_, Dec 05 2017

%F T(n,n) = 2^(floor(log(n)/log(2))). Construction. The 2n-th row is the concatenation of row n, after multiplying each term by 2 and subtracting 1, with row n, after multiplying each term by 2. The (2n-1)-th row is the concatenation of row n, after multiplying each term by 2 and subtracting 1, with row n-1, after multiplying each term by 2.

%F Sum_{k=1..n} k * A088370(n,k) = A309371(n). - _Alois P. Heinz_, Jul 26 2019
