A187793(a(n)) is odd. - Timothy L. Tiffin, Jul 18 2016

If k is odd (k = 2m+1 for m >= 0), then 2^k = 2^(2m+1) = 2*(2^m)^2. If k is even (k = 2m for m >= 0), then 2^k = 2^(2m) = (2^m)^2. So, the powers of 2 sequence (A000079) is a subsequence of this one. - Timothy L. Tiffin, Jul 18 2016

For n >= 2, a(n) = number of partitions p of n such that floor(n/2) is a part of p. For n >= 1, a(n) = number of partitions p of n such that ceiling(n/2) is a part of p. - Clark Kimberling, Feb 28 2014

From Gus Wiseman, Oct 28 2021: (Start)

If we insert zeros every three terms, this counts partitions of n such that n = floor(3*k/2), where k is the number of parts. This counts by sum rather than length. These partitions are ranked by A347452.

Also the number of integer partitions of n with alternating product 1, where the alternating product of a sequence (y_1,...,y_k) is Product_i y_i^((-1)^(i-1)). These are the conjugates of the partitions (ranked by A336119) described in Arndt's comment above. For example, the a(2) = 1 through a(10) = 7 partitions are:

11 111 22 221 33 331 44 441 55

1111 11111 2211 22111 2222 22221 3322

111111 1111111 3311 33111 4411

221111 2211111 222211

11111111 111111111 331111

22111111

1111111111

These partitions are ranked by A028982. The odd-length case is A035363 (shifted), which is also the version for sum instead of product. The multiplicative version (factorizations) is A347438.

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)).

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

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)). The reverse-alternating product is the alternating product of the reversed sequence.

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

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

Also the number of factorizations of n with alternating sum >= 0.

First differs from A335434 at a(216) = 27, A335434(216) = 28. Also differs from A335434 at a(270) = 19, A335434(270) = 20.

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

All of the counted factorizations are separable (A335434).

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). Alternating permutations of multisets are a generalization of alternating or up-down permutations of {1..n}.

An ordered factorization of n is a 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)).
