This is a permutation of the natural numbers.
For the definition of middle divisors see A067742.
Conjecture 1: T(n,k) is also the n-th positive integer j with the property that the difference between the number of partitions of j into an odd number of consecutive parts and the number of partitions of j into an even number of consecutive parts is equal to k.
Conjecture 2: T(n,k) is also the n-th positive integer j with the property that the symmetric representation of sigma(j) has width k on the main diagonal.

In accordance with the conjecture 1, T(1,0) = 3 because there is only one partition of 3 into an odd number of consecutive parts: [3], and there is only one partition of 3 into an even number of consecutive parts: [2, 1], therefore the difference of the number of those partitions is 1 - 1 = 0.
On the other hand, in accordance with the conjecture 2: T(1,0) = 3 because the symmetric representation of sigma(3) = 4 has width 0 on the main diagonal, as shown below:

In accordance with the conjecture 1, T(1,2) = 6 because there are three partitions of 6 into an odd number of consecutive parts: [6], [3, 2, 1], and there are no partitions of 6 into an even number of consecutive parts, therefore the difference of the number of those partitions is 2 - 0 = 2.
On the other hand, in accordance with the conjecture 2: T(1,2) = 6 because the symmetric representation of sigma(6) = 12 has width 2 on the main diagonal, as shown below:
