COMMENTS
|
The numbers in the n-th row of the triangle are the coordinates on the diagonal in the first quadrant of the polygons constructed by alternately adding and subtracting squares taken from the n-th row of A236104. The boundary from (0,n) to (n,0) of the final polygon is the Dyck path as defined in the n-th row of A237593. Therefore, using the arguments in A196020, A236104 and A071561, sigma(n) equals the area of its symmetric representation, for all n>=1.
The right border gives A240542.
For an image of the construction process of the Dyck path for sigma(15) see the image file in the Links section.
The length of the n-th row is A003056(n). - Omar E. Pol, Nov 03 2015
