%F From _Joerg Arndt_, Jun 01 2012: (Start)

%F The antidiagonals are symmetric.

%F R(r, 1) = R(1, r) = 1,

%F R(r, 2) = R(2, r) = r,

%F R(r, s) <= R(r-1, s) + R(r, s-1),

%F R(r, s) <= R(r-1, s) + R(r, s-1) - 1 if R(r-1, s) and R(r, s-1) are both even,

%F R(r, r) <= 4 * R(r, r-2) + 2. (End)

%e Array R(n,k), n >= 2, k >= 2, begins:

%e 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,

%e 3, 6, 9, 14, 18, 23, 28, 36,

%e 4, 9, 18, 25, ?, ?, ?,

%e 5, 14, 25, ?, ?, ?,

%e 6, 18, ?, ?, ?,

%e 7, 23, ?, ?,

%e 8, 28, ?,

%e 9, 36,

%e 10,

%Y The second (n = 3) row gives A000791.

%Y A120414 gives a conjecture for R(n,n).

%Y See A212954 for another version.

%K nonn,tabl,nice,hard

%O 0,1

%A _N. J. A. Sloane_, Feb 01 2001

%E Next term is in the range 35-41.

%E More terms in example section (antidiagonals 6-10; cf. A000791) from _Omar E. Pol_, Jun 11 2012
