Comments

Descending by the main diagonal of the pyramid, A071562 gives the levels where we can find a terrace.

The terraces at the k-th level of the pyramid are also the parts of the symmetric representation of sigma(k).

a(n) is the length of the n-th vertical line segment at the main diagonal of the pyramid.

a(n) is the precipice of A071562(n).

The structure of the stepped pyramid arises after the 90-degree-zig-zag folding of the diagram of the isosceles triangle A237593.

The stepped pyramid is also one of the 3D-quadrants of the stepped pyramid described in A244050.

Equals nonzero terms of A259179. - Omar E. Pol, Apr 17 2018
