The number of horizontal line segments in the n-th level in each side of the diagram equals A001227(n), the number of odd divisors of n. The number of horizontal line segments in the left side of the diagram plus the number of the horizontal line segment in the right side equals A054844(n). The total number of vertical line segments in the n-th level of the diagram equals A131507(n). The diagram represents the first 16 levels of the pyramid. The diagram of the isosceles triangle and the diagram of the top view of the pyramid shows the connection between the partitions into consecutive parts and the sum of divisors function (see also A286000 and A286001). - _Omar E. Pol_, Aug 28 2018 The connection between the isosceles triangle and the stepped pyramid is due to the fact that this object can also be interpreted as a pop-up card. - _Omar E. Pol_, Nov 09 2022
