Suppose that s is an increasing sequence of positive integers, that the complement t of s is infinite, and that t(1)=1. The dispersion of s is the array D whose n-th row is (t(n), s(t(n)), s(s(t(n))), s(s(s(t(n)))), ...). Every positive integer occurs exactly once in D, so that, as a sequence, D is a permutation of the positive integers. The sequence u given by u(n) = {index of the row of D that contains n} is a fractal sequence. In this case s(n) = A016789(n-1), t(n) = A032766(n) [from term A032766(1) onward] and u(n) = A253887(n).

The leftmost column is A032766, and each successive column to the right of it is obtained by multiplying the left neighbor on that row by three and subtracting one, thus the second column is (3*1)-1, (3*3)-1, (3*4)-1, (3*6)-1, (3*7)-1, (3*9)-1, ... = 2, 8, 11, 17, 20, 26, ...

This is transposed dispersion of (3n-1), starting from its complement A032766 as the first row of square array A(row,col). Please see the transposed array A191450 for references and background discussion about dispersions.
For any odd number x = A135765(row,col), the result after one combined Collatz step (3x+1)/2 -> x (A165355) is found in this array at A(row+1,col).

Formula

In A(n,k)-formulas below, n is the row, and k the column index, both starting from 1:
A(n,k) = (3 + ( A000244(n) * (2*A032766(k) - 1) )) / 6. - Antti Karttunen after L. Edson Jeffery's direct formula for A191450, Jan 24 2015
A(n,k) = A048673(A254053(n,k)). [Alternative formula.]
A(n,k) = (1/2) * (1 + A003961((2^(n-1)) * A254050(k))). [The above expands to this.]
A(n,k) = (1/2) * (1 + (A000244(n-1) * A007310(k))). [Which further reduces to this, equivalent to L. Edson Jeffery's original formula above.]
A(1,k) = A032766(k) and for n > 1: A(n,k) = (3 * A254051(n-1,k)) - 1. [The definition of transposed dispersion of (3n-1).]
A(n,k) = (1+A135765(n,k))/2, or when expressed one-dimensionally, a(n) = (1+A135765(n))/2.
A(n+1,k) = A165355(A135765(n,k)).
As a composition of related permutations. All sequences interpreted as one-dimensional:
a(n) = A048673(A254053(n)). [Proved above.]
a(n) = A191450(A038722(n)). [Transpose of array A191450.]

A199114 a(n) = 11*3^n+1.
