The n-th row contains 2^(n-2) numbers, and is a permutation of 1, 5, 9, ..., 2^n - 3.
For e >= 4, the multiplicative order of a modulo 2^e equals to 2^(e-2) iff a == 3, 5 (mod 8); for e >= 5, the multiplicative order of a modulo 2^e equals to 2^(e-3) iff a == 7, 9 (mod 16); for e >= 6, the multiplicative order of a modulo 2^e equals to 2^(e-4) iff a == 15, 17 (mod 32), etc. From this we can see v(T(n,k) - 1, 2) = v(k, 2) + 2, where v(k, 2) = A007814(k) is the 2-adic valuation of k. Also, T(n,k) is a 2^v(k, 2)-th power residue but not a 2^(v(k, 2)+1)-th power residue modulo 2^i, i >= v(k, 2) + 3.
