Row sums yield the partition numbers (A000041).

Gus Wiseman, Jul 20 2024

The leaders of maximal weakly increasing runs in a sequence are obtained by splitting it into maximal weakly increasing subsequences and taking the first term of each.

The k-th composition in standard order (graded reverse-lexicographic, A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. This gives a bijective correspondence between nonnegative integers and integer compositions.

			The 58654th composition in standard order is (1,1,3,2,4,1,1,1,2), with maximal weakly increasing runs ((1,1,3),(2,4),(1,1,1,2)), so row 58654 is (1,2,1).
The nonnegative integers, corresponding compositions, and leaders of maximal weakly increasing runs begin:
    0:      () -> ()      15: (1,1,1,1) -> (1)
    1:     (1) -> (1)     16:       (5) -> (5)
    2:     (2) -> (2)     17:     (4,1) -> (4,1)
    3:   (1,1) -> (1)     18:     (3,2) -> (3,2)
    4:     (3) -> (3)     19:   (3,1,1) -> (3,1)
    5:   (2,1) -> (2,1)   20:     (2,3) -> (2)
    6:   (1,2) -> (1)     21:   (2,2,1) -> (2,1)
    7: (1,1,1) -> (1)     22:   (2,1,2) -> (2,1)

These are compositions avoiding the patterns (1,2,1) and (2,1,2).

The k-th composition in standard order (graded reverse-lexicographic, A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. This gives a bijective correspondence between nonnegative integers and integer compositions.

Note that an exponentiation ^(-1) is missing in Example 4.4. The notation in Theorem 4.3 is complete.

Theorem: The reverse of a composition avoids 23-1 iff its leaders of maximal weakly increasing runs are weakly decreasing. For example, the composition y = (3,2,1,2,2,1,2,5,1,1,1) has maximal weakly increasing runs ((3),(2),(1,2,2),(1,2,5),(1,1,1)), with leaders (3,2,1,1,1), which are weakly decreasing, so the reverse of y is counted under a(21). - Gus Wiseman, Aug 19 2024

  .  (6)  (5,1)  (4,1,1)  (3,1,1,1)  (2,1,1,1,1)  (1,1,1,1,1,1)

First differs from A261983 at a(6) = 20, A261983(6) = 18.

A sequence is alternating if it is alternately strictly increasing and strictly decreasing, starting with either. For example, the partition (3,2,2,2,1) has no alternating permutations, even though it does have the anti-run permutations (2,3,2,1,2) and (2,1,2,3,2).

Every sequence can be uniquely split into a sequence of non-overlapping runs. For example, the runs of (2,2,1,1,1,3,2,2) are ((2,2),(1,1,1),(3),(2,2)), with sums (4,3,3,4).

The k-th composition in standard order (graded reverse-lexicographic, A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. This gives a bijective correspondence between nonnegative integers and integer compositions.
