A262898
Square array A(row,col) read by antidiagonals: A(1,col) = A045765(col); for row > 1, if A(row-1,col) = 0 then A(row,col) = 0, otherwise A(row,col) = A049820(A(row-1,col)).

COMMENTS
The array is read by downwards antidiagonals: A(1,1), A(1,2), A(2,1), A(1,3), A(2,2), A(3,1), etc.
Column n gives the trajectory of iterates of A049820, when starting from A045765(n), thus stepping through successive parent-nodes when starting from the n-th leaf in the tree generated by edge-relation A049820(child) = parent, until finally reaching the fixed point 0, which is the root of the whole tree.
A portion of the hanging tail of each column (upward from the first encountered zero) converges towards A259934, although not in monotone fashion.
FORMULA
A(1,col) = A045765(col), and for row > 1, if A(row-1,col) = 0 then A(row,col) = 0, otherwise A(row,col) = A049820(A(row-1,col)).
