Comments

For the numerators see A278148.
The length of row n is A002088(n) = A005728(n) - 1.
See A278148 for the definition of the Farey dissection of order n of the interval [1/(n+1), n/(n+1)] into A015614(n) intervals J(n,j) = [l(n,j), r(n,j)] with r(n,j) = l(n,j+1), for j=1..A015614(n), where the fractions l(n,j) and r(n,j) are given in a comment of A278148 in terms of three consecutive members of the Farey fraction sequence of order n.

Formula

T(1, 1) = 2 and for n>= 2: T(n, 1) = n + 1, T(n, A002088(n)) = n + 1 and for
m = 2..(A002088(n) - 1): T(n, m) = denominator(l(n,m)) = denominator(p(n,m)/q(n,m) - 1/(q(n,m)*(q(n,m) + q(n,m-1)))).
