The definition of joint-rank array given at A182801 is
here extended to arrays R={f(i,j)} for which the numbers
f(i,j) are not necessarily distinct. Specifically, all
duplicates are assigned the same rank when all the numbers
in R are jointly ranked. Let {a(i,j)} denote the
resulting joint-rank array. In case all f(i,j) are
positive integers, a(i,j)=f(i,j)-L(i,j), where L(i,j) is
the number of numbers in R that are <=f(i,j).
(Row 1)=A047808.
EXAMPLE
A corner of the array R={i^2+j^2} is
0....1....4....9...16...
1....2....5...10...17...
4....5....8...13...20...
9...10...13...18...25...
Replace each term of R by its rank:
1....2....4....7...10...
2....3....5....8...11...
4....5....6....9...13...
7....8....9...12...14...
