A182431 Table, read by antidiagonals, in which the n-th row comprises A214206(n) 0 followed by a second-order recursive series G in which each product G(i)*G(i+1) lies in the same row of A001477 (interpreted as a square array). 7

COMMENTS
This is a table related to the square array of nonnegative integers, A001477. Each row k contains the positive argument of the largest triangular number equal to or less than 14*k in column 0 and a corresponding 2nd-order recursive sequence G(k) beginning at position a(k,1). Each term G(i) is the same as a(k,i+1). If the product 14*k appears in row "r" of the square array A001477, then the product of adjacent terms G(i)*G(i+1), if greater than (r^2 + 3*r - 2)/2, is always in row "r" of table A001477. If the product is less than (r^2 +3*r -2)/2, then the product less r would be a triangular number, i.e., still lie in the same row assumed to contain all numbers n that equal a triangular number + r. For example, 3 is a triangular number and appears in row 0 of A001477, but if the rows could take negative indices, A001477(2,-1) would be a 3 so 3 can be said to also lie in row 2. See A182102 for a table of the arguments of the triangular numbers G(i)*G(i+1) - r.
A property of this table is that a(k+1,i)-a(k,i) directly depends on the value of a(k+1,0)-a(k,0) in the same manner regardless of the value of k. For instance, if a(k+1,0) - a(k,0) = 1 then a(k+1,i+1) - a(k,i+1) equals A182435(i) for all i. Also, for i>0, A143608(i) divides a(k+1,i+1)-a(k,i+1) for all k.

FORMULA
a(k,0) equals the largest m such that m*(m+1)/2 is less than or equal to 14*k.
a(k,1) = 14; a(k,2) = k.
For i > 2, a(k,i) = 6*a(k,i-1) - a(k,i-2) + G_k where G_k is a constant equal to 28 + 2*k - 2 - 4*a(k,0).

Note that 14*0,0*12,12*98, 98*602 etc are each 0 more than a triangular number and are in row 0 of square array A001477; while 14*1, 1*4, 4*35, 35*218 etc are each 4 more than a triangular number and thus can be said to lie in row 4 of square array A001477.
