Comments

We begin with a definition of Type 1 runlength array, U(s), of a sequence s:

Suppose s is a sequence (finite or infinite), and define rows of U(s) as follows:

(row 0) = s

(row 1) = sequence of 1st terms of runs in (row 0); c(1) = complement of (row 1) in (row 0)

For n>=2,

(row n) = sequence of 1st terms of runs in c(n-1); c(n) = complement of (row n) in (row n-1),

where the process stops if and when c(n) is empty for some n.

***

The corresponding Type 1 runlength index array, UI(s) is now contructed from U(s) in two steps:

(1) Let U*(s) be the array obtaining by repeating the construction of U(s) using (n,s(n)) in place of s(n).

(2) Then UI(s) results by retaining only n in U*.

Thus, loosely speaking, (row n) of UI(s) shows the indices in s of the numbers in (row n) of U(s).

The array UI(s) includes every positive integer exactly once.

***

Regarding the present array, each row of U(s) splits an increasing sequence of primes according to remainder modulo 3; e.g., in row 2, the remainders of primes in positions 10,12,16,19,24,37 are 2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1, respectively.

Starting with s = A039702, we have for U*(s):
(row 1) = ((1,2), (2,3), (3,1), (4,3), (6,1), (8,3), (10,1), (11,3), ...)
c(1) = ((5,3), (7,1), (9,3), (13,1), (15,3), (20,3), (23,3), (25,1), (26,1), ...)
(row 2) = ((5,3), (7,1), (9,3), (13,1), (15,3), (25,1), (28,3), (30,1), (32,3), ...)
c(2) = (20,3), (23,3), (26,1), ...)
(row 3) = (20,3), (26,1), ...)
so that UI(s) has
(row 1) = (1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,11, ...)
(row 2) = (5,7,9,13,15,25, ...)
(row 3) = (20,26,...)
