COMMENTS

A self-inverse permutation of the nonnegative numbers.
a(n) is the smallest nonnegative integer not yet in the sequence such that n + a(n) is one less than a square. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Apr 06 2009
Array T(n,k) = (n+k)^2/2 + (n+3*k)/2 for n,k >= 0 read by descending antidiagonals.
Array T(n,k) = (n+k)^2/2 + (3*n+k)/2 for n,k >= 0 read by ascending antidiagonals. (End)

FORMULA
|
a(n) = floor(sqrt(2n+1)-1/2)*floor(sqrt(2n+1)+3/2) - n = A005563(A003056(n)) - n.
Row (or antidiagonal) n = 0, 1, 2, ... contains the integers from A000217(n) to A000217(n+1)-1 in reverse order (for diagonals, "reversed" with respect to the canonical "falling" order, cf. A001477/table). - M. F. Hasler, Nov 09 2021
T(n,k) = n*(n+3)/2 - k.
Sum_{k=0..n} k * T(n,k) = A002419(n).
Sum_{k=0..n} k^2 * T(n,k) = A119771(n).
Sum_{k=0..n} (-1)^k * T(n,k) = A226725(n). (End)

EXAMPLE
|
Read as a triangle, the sequence is:
0
2 1
5 4 3
9 8 7 6
14 13 12 11 10
(...)
As an infinite square matrix (cf. the "table" link, 2nd paragraph) it reads:
0 2 5 9 14 20 ...
1 4 8 13 19 22 ...
3 7 12 18 23 30 ...
6 11 17 24 31 39 ...
(...)

(PARI) A061579_row(n)=vector(n+=1, j, n*(n+1)\2-j)
A061579_upto(n)=concat([A061579_row(r)|r<-[0..sqrtint(2*n)]]) \\ yields approximately n terms: actual number differs by less than +- sqrt(n). - M. F. Hasler, Nov 09 2021
