Comments

The function f is a bijection from the nonnegative integers to the nonnegative rational numbers.

The positive integers, together with (x,y) -> A(x,y), form an abelian group isomorph to the multiplicative group of positive rational numbers (f and g act as isomorphisms).

Each row (or column), except the first, is a permutation of the nonnegative integers.

Formula

A(n, k) = A(k, n).

A(n, 0) = 0.

A(n, 1) = n.

A(n, A054429(n)) = 1 for any n > 0.

A(m, A(n, k)) = A(A(m, n), k).

A(n, A(n-1, ... A(2, 1) ... )) = 2^(A002487(n+1)-1).
