COMMENTS
Square array A(x,y), x >= 0, y >= 0, defined as follows:
(1) Extend the Wythoff array infinitely to the left, maintaining the Fibonacci recurrence (see A287870 examples). We denote this extended array as eW(n,m), n >= 0, m any integer, indexed such that eW(n,0) = n. From each row n, form the set of pairs S_n = {(eW(n,m+1),eW(n,m)) : integer m)}.
(2) Define addition and multiplication of pairs by (j1,k1) + (j2,k2) = (j1+j2, k1+k2) and (j1,k1) o (j2,k2) = (j1*j2 + k1*k2, j1*k2 + k1*j2 - k1*k2). (This defines a commutative ring with identity (1,0).)
(3) For nonnegative integers x and y, there is an integer z such that for every pair (j_x,k_x) in S_x and every pair (j_y,k_y) in S_y, (j_x,k_x) o (j_y,k_y) is in S_z. Define A(x,y) = z.
As a binary operation, A(.,.) is analogous to multiplication of coefficients in scientific numeric notation. The column position, m, used to define a pair in (1) above does not affect the eventual outcome, A(x,y), in (3), as no special pairs are selected from the pairs in S_x or S_y. The column position is analogous to the exponent. Notice also A(1,1) = 15 is substantially larger than A(2,2) = 4. This can be seen as analogous to 0.3 * 0.4 = 0.12 requiring more digits than 0.5 * 0.8 = 0.4.

FORMULA
A(x,y) = g(j1*j2 + k1*k2, j1*k2 + k1*j2 - k1*k2), where j1 = A035336(x+1), j2 = A035336(y+1), k1 = A003622(x+1), k2 = A003622(y+1) and g(j,k) = (if j = A000201(k+1) then k otherwise g(k,j-k)).
A(x,y) = A(y,x).
A(x,0) = x.
A(x, A(y,z)) = A(A(x,y), z).
A022344(A(x,y)) = A022344(x) * A022344(y).
A(A019586(x), A019586(y)) = A019586(A101330(x,y)). (conjectured)
EXAMPLE
Calculation for A(1,2). Rows 1 and 2 of A287870 (indexed from 0) start 1, 3, ... and 2, 4, ... . So we may use the pairs (3,1) and (4,2). The defined multiplication gives (3*4 + 1*2, 3*2 + 4*1 - 1*2) = (14,8). 8, 14 , ... is in row 8 of A287870, so A(1,2) = 8.
For A(1,1), we start as above to get (3*3 + 1*1, 3*1 + 3*1 - 1*1) = (10,5). In the more general case, we form a sequence using the Fibonacci recurrence (as ..., 5, 10, ... may be in the extension leftwards of A287870). This starts 5, 10, 5+10=15, 10+15=25, 15+25=40, ... . We observe 15, 25, 40, ... is in row 15. So A(1,1) = 15.
