This is one of many interesting sequences and arrays that stem from the natural number array A000027, of which a northwest corner is as follows:
1....2.....4.....7...11...16...22...29...
3....5.....8....12...17...23...30...38...
6....9....13....18...24...31...39...48...
10...14...19....25...32...40...49...59...
15...20...26....33...41...50...60...71...
21...27...34....42...51...61...72...84...
28...35...43....52...62...73...85...98...
Blocking out all terms below the main diagonal leaves columns whose sums comprise A185787. Deleting the main diagonal and then summing give A185787. Analogous treatments to the left of the main diagonal give A100182 and A101165. Further sequences obtained directly from this array are easily obtained using the following formula for the array: T(n,k)=n+(n+k-2)(n+k-1)/2.

Antidiagonal sums: (1,5,15,34,...)=A006003=partial sums of A002817.
Let S(n,k) denote the n-th partial sum of column k. Then
S(n,k)=n*(n^2+3k*n+3*k^2-6*k+5)/6.
S(n,1)=n(n+1)(n+2)/6
S(n,2)=n(n+1)(n+5)/6
S(n,3)=n(n+2)(n+7)/6
S(n,4)=n(n^2+12n+29)/6
S(n,5)=n(n+5)(n+10)/6
S(n,6)=n(n+7)(n+11)/6
S(n,7)=n(n+10)(n+11)/6

Continuing with the natural number array T, for n>=1,
* number of the row containing n: A002260(n);
* number of the column containing n: A004736(n);
* number of the antidiagonal containing n: A002024(n);
* self-convolution of n-th antidiagonal: A387429(n);
* number of squares in n-th antidiagonal: A361433(n).
* number of primes in n-th antidiagonal: A066888(n);
* number of odd numbers in n-th antidiagonal: A004525(n);
* number of even numbers in n-th antidiagonal: A004524(n) for n>=2;
* Every multisection of every row, every column, and every diagonal is linearly recurrent with signature (3,-3, 1). Indeed, every "linear staircase sequence", T(n+h*u,k+h*v), for fixed n,k,u,v, with h=0..oo, is linearly recurrent with signature (3,-3,1).
Let F(n) be the set of the first n numbers in row n together with the first n numbers in column n, so that F(1) = {1}, F(2) = {2,3,5}, F(3) = {4,6,8,9,13}, etc. Then n is in F(A051125(n)).
