A351819 Irregular triangle read by rows: T(n,k) is the number of subparts of the symmetric representation of sigma(n) that arise from the (2*k-1)-th double-staircase of the double-staircases diagram of n described in A335616, n >= 1, k >= 1, and the first element of column k is in row A000384(k). 7

Conjecture 1: the number of nonzero terms in row n equals A082647(n).
Conjecture 2: column k lists positive integers interleaved with 2*k+2 zeros.
T(n,k) is also the number of staircases (or subparts) of the ziggurat diagram of n (described in A347186) that arise from the (2*k-1)-th double-staircase of the double-staircases diagram of n (described in A335616).
The k-th column of the triangle is related to the (2*k+1)-gonal numbers. For further information about this connection see A347186 and A347263.
Terms can be 0, 1 or 2.

For n = 15 the calculation of the 15th row of triangle (in accordance with the geometric algorithm described in A347186) is as follows:
Stage 1 (Construction):
We draw the diagram called "double-staircases" with 15 levels described in A335616.
Then we label the five double-staircases (j = 1..5) as shown below:
_
_| |_
_| _ |_

_| _| |_ |_

|_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _|_ _ _|_ _|_|_|_|_ _|_ _ _|_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _|
1 2 3 4 5
.
Stage 2 (Debugging):
We remove the fourth double-staircase as it does not have at least one step at level 1 of the diagram starting from the base, as shown below:

.
Stage 3 (Annihilation):
We delete the second double-staircase and the steps of the first double-staircase that are just above the second double-staircase.
The new diagram has two double-staircases and two simple-staircases as shown below:

The diagram is called "ziggurat of 15".
The staircase labeled 1 arises from the double-staircase labeled 1 in the double-staircases diagram of 15. There is a pair of these staircases, so T(15,1) = 2, since the symmetric representation of sigma(15) is also the base of the three dimensional version of the ziggurat .
The double-staircase labeled 3 is the same in both diagrams, so T(15,2) = 1.
The double-staircase labeled 5 is the same in both diagrams, so T(15,3) = 1.
Therefore the 15th row of the triangle is [2, 1, 1].
The top view of the 3D-Ziggurat of 15 and the symmetric representation of sigma(15) with subparts look like this:
