A370050 Square array read by ascending antidiagonals: T(n,k) is the size of the group Z_p*/(Z_p*)^k, where p = prime(n), and Z_p is the ring of p-adic integers. 10

COMMENTS
We have that Z_p*/(Z_p*)^k is the inverse limit of (Z/p^iZ)*/((Z/p^iZ)*)^k as i tends to infinity. Write k = p^e * k' with k' not being divisible by p. If p is odd, then the group is cyclic of order p^e * gcd(p-1,k'). If p = 2 and k is odd, then the group is trivial. If p = 2 and k is even, then the group is the product of a cyclic group of order 2^e and a cyclic group of order 2.
Each row is multiplicative.

FORMULA
Write k = p^e * k' with k' not being divisible by p, and p = prime(n). If p is odd, then T(n,k) = p^e * gcd(p-1,k'). If p = 2 and k is odd, then T(n,k) = 1. If p = 2 and k is even, then T(n,k) = 2^(e+1).

For p = prime(1) = 2 and k = 2, we have Z_p*/(Z_p*)^k = Z_2*/(1+8Z_2) = (Z/8Z)*/(1+8Z) = C_2 X C_2, so T(1,2) = 4.
For p = prime(2) = 3 and k = 3, we have Z_p*/(Z_p*)^k = Z_3*/((1+9Z_3) U (8+9Z_3)) = (Z/9Z)*/((1+9Z) U (8+9Z)) = C_3, so T(2,3) = 3.
PROG
