The alternating sum of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(i-1) y_i, which is equal to the number of odd parts in the conjugate partition.
The Heinz number of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is prime(y_1)*...*prime(y_k), giving a bijective correspondence between positive integers and integer partitions.
Also the reverse-alternating sum of the prime indices of n.

			The partition (6,4,3,2,2) has Heinz number 4095 and conjugate (5,5,3,2,1,1), so a(4095) = 5.

Differs from A335448 in lacking squares and having 270 etc.
First differs from A345193 in having 270.
Such a permutation is characterized by being neither a twin (x,x) nor wiggly (A025047, A345192). A sequence is wiggly if it is alternately strictly increasing and strictly decreasing, starting with either. For example, the partition (3,2,2,2,1) has no wiggly permutations, even though it has anti-run permutations (2,3,2,1,2) and (2,1,2,3,2).
The Heinz number of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is prime(y_1)*...*prime(y_k). This gives a bijective correspondence between positive integers and integer partitions.

			The sequence of terms together with their prime indices begins:
   8: {1,1,1}
  16: {1,1,1,1}

For example, 36 has prime indices (1,1,2,2), which has the two wiggly permutations (1,2,1,2) and (2,1,2,1), so 36 is not in the sequence.

A factorization of n is a weakly increasing sequence of positive integers > 1 with product n.

We define the alternating product of a sequence (y_1,...,y_k) to be Product_i y_i^((-1)^(i-1)).

First differs from A335448 in having 270.
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 has the anti-run permutations (2,3,2,1,2) and (2,1,2,3,2).
Also Heinz numbers of integer partitions without a wiggly permutation, where the Heinz number of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is prime(y_1)*...*prime(y_k).

			The sequence of terms together with their prime indices begins:
    4: {1,1}
    8: {1,1,1}

All of these factorizations have an even number of factors, so their reverse-alternating product is also an integer.
A factorization of n is a weakly increasing sequence of positive integers > 1 with product n.
We define the reciprocal alternating product of a sequence (y_1,...,y_k) to be Product_i y_i^((-1)^i).
The value of a(n) does not depend solely on the prime signature of n. See the example comparing a(144) and a(400). - Antti Karttunen, Jul 28 2024

From _Antti Karttunen_, Jul 28 2024 (Start)
For n=400, there are 12 such factorizations:
  2*200
  4*100
  5*80
  10*40
  20*20
  2*2*2*50
  2*2*5*20
  2*2*10*10
  2*4*5*10
  2*5*5*8
  4*4*5*5
  2*2*2*2*5*5.
Note that 400 = 2^4 * 5^2 has the same prime signature as 144 = 2^4 * 3^2. 400 = 2*4*5*10 is the factorization for which there is no analogous factorization of 144, as 2*3*4*6 doesn't satisfy the condition of having an integer reciprocal alternating product.
