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

%N 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.

%C a(n, 1) is the least positive integer not in a previous row.

%C This sequence is a permutation of the natural numbers.

%C The first row is A003278.

%C The second row is the lexicographically earliest sequence of terms not in the first row that contains no arithmetic progressions.

%C The third row is the lexicographically earliest sequence of terms not in the first two rows that contains no arithmetic progressions.

%e a(2, 4) = 12 because row 2 begins (3, 6, 7)

%e a(2, 4) != 8 because (6, 7, 8) is an arithmetic progression,

%e a(2, 4) != 9 because (3, 6, 9) is an arithmetic progression,

%e a(2, 4) != 10 because a(1, 5) = 10 is in a previous row.

%e a(2, 4) != 11 because a(1, 6) = 11 is in a previous row.

%e a(2, 4) = 12 does not create any arithmetic progressions in row 2, and 12 is not in row 1.
