Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) = number of distinct lines through the origin in the n-dimensional cubic lattice of side length k with one corner at the origin.

%N Triangle read by rows: T(n,k) = number of distinct lines through the origin in the n-dimensional cubic lattice of side length k with one corner at the origin.

%C Equivalently, number of lattice points where the GCD of all coordinates = 1.

%F With A(n, k) = A090225(n, k), T(n, k) =(k+1)^n - 1 - the sum for 0 < i < k of Floor[k/i-1]*A(n, i)

%F T(n,k) = Sum_{i=1..n-k} moebius(i)*((floor((n-k)/i)+1)^k-1). - _Vladeta Jovovic_, Dec 03 2004

%e T(n,1) = 2^n-1 because there are 2^n-1 lattice points other than the corner, all of which make distinct lines. T(n,2) = 3^n - 2^n because if the given corner is the origin, all the points with coordinates in {0,1} make lines that are redundant with a point containing a coordinate 2.

A049691, A090025, A090026, A090027, A090028, A090029 give T(n, k) for n=2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 respectively. A090225 counts only points with at least one coordinate = k.
