Comments

The alternating sum of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(i-1) y_i. This is equal to the number of odd parts in the conjugate partition, so T(n,k) is the number of integer partitions of n with k odd parts in the conjugate partition, which is also the number of partitions of n with k odd parts.

Also the number of integer partitions of n with odd-indexed parts (odd bisection) summing to k, ceiling(n/2) <= k <= n. The even-indexed version is A346633. - Gus Wiseman, Nov 29 2021
