Row n lists in ascending order all numbers k whose arithmetic derivative k' [A003415(k)] is equal to A024451(n) = A003415(A002110(n)). For A024451(1) = 1, there is an infinite number of integers k for which A003415(k) = 1 (namely, all the primes), therefore the rows start from index n=2, with each having A377993(n) terms. Note that as a whole, this sequence is not monotonic, for example, the last term on row 9, 1171314743479 is larger than the first term of row 10, 6469693230.
EXAMPLE
The initial rows of the triangle:
Row n terms
2 6;
3 30, 58;
4 210, 435, 507;
5 2310, 8435, 21827, 29233;
6 30030, 39030, 62762, 69914, 76442, 78874;
7 510510, 1342785, 1958673;
8 9699690, 28235362;
9 223092870, 975351895, 1527890095, ..., , 1167539981207, 1171314743479; (row 9 has 330 terms that are given separately in A378209)
10 6469693230, 27623935255, 37262208055;
11 200560490130, 345634019382, 440192669882;
etc.
The only terms that occur on row 4 are k = 210, 435, 507 ( = 2*3*5*7, 3*5*29, 3 * 13^2) as they are only numbers for which A003415(k) = 247 = A024451(4) = A003415(A002110(4)), as we have (2*3*5*7)' = (3*5)'*(2*7) + (2*7)'*3*5 = (8*14) + (9*15) = (3*5*29)' = (3*5)'*29 + (3*5)*29' = (8*29 + 15*1) = (3 * 13 * 13)' = (3*13)'*13 + (3*13)*13' = 16*13 + 3*13*1 = 19*13 = 247.
Note that 507 is so far the only known term in this triangle that is not squarefree (in A005117).
