A177121
Square array T(n,k) read by antidiagonals up: T(n,k) = 1 if n=1; otherwise if n divides k then T(n,k) = -n+1; otherwise T(n,k) = 1.

COMMENTS
Replace the first column in A077049 with any k-th column in A177121 (this array) to get a new array. Then the matrix inverse of the new array will have the k-th column of A054535 (Ramanujan sum) as its first column.
Obtained from A176079 by transposing, flipping signs, and adding a lower triangle of all -1's. - R. J. Mathar, Jul 08 2011
FORMULA
T(n,k) = 1 if n=1; otherwise, if n divides k then T(n,k) = -n+1; otherwise T(n,k) = 1.
