A246278 Prime shift array: Square array read by antidiagonals: A(1,col) = 2*col, and for row > 1, A(row,col) = A003961(A(row-1,col)). 75

COMMENTS
The array is read by antidiagonals: A(1,1), A(1,2), A(2,1), A(1,3), A(2,2), A(3,1), etc.
This array can be obtained by taking every second column from array A242378, starting from its column 2.
Permutation of natural numbers larger than 1.
The terms on row n are all divisible by n-th prime, A000040(n).
Each column is strictly growing, and the terms in the same column have the same prime signature.
A055396(n) gives the row number of row where n occurs,
and A246277(n) gives its column number, both starting from 1.
From Antti Karttunen, Jan 03 2015: (Start)
A252759(n) gives their sum minus one, i.e. the Manhattan distance of n from the top left corner.
If we assume here that a(1) = 1 (but which is not explicitly included because outside of the array), then A252752 gives the inverse permutation. See also A246276.

FORMULA
A(1,col) = 2*col, and for row > 1, A(row,col) = A003961(A(row-1,col)).
As a composition of other similar sequences:
a(n) = A122111(A253561(n)).
a(n) = A249818(A083221(n)).
For all n >= 1, a(n+1) = A005940(1+A253551(n)).
A(n, k) = A341606(n, k) * A355925(n, k). - Antti Karttunen, Jul 22 2022
