A120577 Irregular array where the n-th row are the divisors, not occurring earlier in the sequence, of the sum of the terms in all previous rows. a(1)=3. 4

%N Irregular array where the n-th row are the divisors, not occurring earlier in the sequence, of the sum of the terms in all previous rows. a(1)=3.

%C Is this sequence a permutation of the positive integers?

%H Michael De Vlieger, <a href="/A120577/a120577.txt">Lengths of rows and relation to number of divisors of the sum of terms in all previous rows.</a>

%e Array begins:

%e 3

%e 1

%e 2, 4

%e 5, 10

%e 25

%e 50

%e Now these terms add up to 100. So row 7 is the divisors of 100 which do not occur earlier in the sequence. 1,2,4,5,10,25 and 50 occur in earlier rows, so row 7 is (20,100).

%e From _Michael De Vlieger_, Oct 03 2017: (Start)

%e Lengths of rows of a(n) and relation to number of divisors of the sum of terms in all previous rows.

%e Key: n = index; m = length of row n; k = sum of the terms in all previous rows.

%e tau(k(n-1)) = number of divisors of k of the previous row.

%e delta = tau(k(n-1)) - m: i.e., divisors of k(n - 1) not in row n of this sequence.

%e .

%e n tau(k(n-1)) m delta k
