COMMENTS
The matrix M in the definition of A292625 is given by this sequence, also, for each natural number m and each natural number c, ((2^(m+1)+1)^c-1)*(the product of any (m+1) not necessarily distinct terms of the m-th row) is palindromic in base (2^(m+1)+1), see the MathOverflow link. - Ahmad J.

EXAMPLE
The array begins:
1 3 13 63 313
1 5 41 365
1 9 145
1 17
1
Example of the result concerning palindromic numbers:
Take m=2, c=4, 2^(m+1) + 1 = 2^3 + 1 = 9, we choose 3 not necessarily distinct terms from the second row. Let them be 41, 365, 365; then we get 41*365*365*(9^4 - 1) = 35832196000 = 112435534211_9, which is a palindromic number in base 9.
