Comments

The reverse-alternating sum of a partition (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(k-i) y_i. This is equal to (-1)^(m-1) times the number of odd parts in the conjugate partition, where m is the number of parts. So T(n,k) is the number of strict integer partitions of n such that k is equal to (-1)^(m-1) times the number of odd conjugate parts.

By conjugation, T(n,k) is also equal to the number of integer partitions of n covering an initial interval of positive integers such that k is equal to (-1)^(r-1) times the number of odd parts, where r is the greatest part.

Also the number of reversed strict integer partitions of n with alternating sum k.
