A202624 Array read by antidiagonals: T(n,k) = order of Fibonacci group F(n,k), writing 0 if the group is infinite, for n >= 2, k >= 1. 6

%N Array read by antidiagonals: T(n,k) = order of Fibonacci group F(n,k), writing 0 if the group is infinite, for n >= 2, k >= 1.

%C The Fibonacci group F(r,n) has presentation <a_1,a_2,...,a_n|a_1*a_2*...*a_r=a_{r+1},...>, where there are n relations, obtained from the first relation by applying the permutation (1,2,,n) to the subscripts and reducing subscripts mod n. Then T(n,k) = |F(n,k)|.

%C T(7,5) was not known in 1998 (Chalk).

%e For example, T(2,5) = 11, since the presentation <a,b,c,d,e | ab=c, bc=d, cd=e, de=a, ea=b> defines the cyclic group of order 11. This example is due to John Conway.

%e This table is based on those in Johnson (1976) and Thomas (1989), supplemented by values from Chalk (1998). We have ignored the n=1 row when reading the table by antidiagonals.
