A293030 Square array read by antidiagonals downwards: a(n, k) is smallest number m > a(n, k-1) that is not in a previous row, and that avoids any 3-term arithmetic progression in a(n, 1), a(n, 2), ..., a(n, k-1), m. 1

COMMENTS
a(n, 1) is the least positive integer not in a previous row.
This sequence is a permutation of the natural numbers.
The first row is A003278.
The second row is the lexicographically earliest sequence of terms not in the first row that contains no arithmetic progressions.
The third row is the lexicographically earliest sequence of terms not in the first two rows that contains no arithmetic progressions.

EXAMPLE
a(2, 4) = 12 because row 2 begins (3, 6, 7)
a(2, 4) != 8 because (6, 7, 8) is an arithmetic progression,
a(2, 4) != 9 because (3, 6, 9) is an arithmetic progression,
a(2, 4) != 10 because a(1, 5) = 10 is in a previous row.
a(2, 4) != 11 because a(1, 6) = 11 is in a previous row.
a(2, 4) = 12 does not create any arithmetic progressions in row 2, and 12 is not in row 1.
