COMMENTS
A081512(n) = smallest number m which can be expressed as the sum of n of its distinct divisors, or 0 if no such number exists. (n=2 is the only time A081512(n) = 0.)
Look at all sets of n distinct divisors d_1, ..., d_n of m = A081512(n) such that d_1+...+d_n = m, and choose the lexicographically earliest solution. That is row n of the current triangle.
The value of d_n in the lexicographically earliest solution is given in A081513.
