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).

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

An ordered factorization of n is a finite sequence of positive integers > 1 with product n.

A sequence is alternating if it is alternately strictly increasing and strictly decreasing, starting with either.

A multiset is separable if it has an anti-run permutation (no adjacent parts equal).
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).
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 terms together with their prime indices begin:
   270: {1,2,2,2,3}
   378: {1,2,2,2,4}
   594: {1,2,2,2,5}

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}.

			The multiset {1,2,2,2,2,3,3} has no alternating permutations, even though it does have the three anti-run permutations (2,1,2,3,2,3,2), (2,3,2,1,2,3,2), (2,3,2,3,2,1,2), so is counted under a(7).

The case of weakly decreasing multiplicities is A025065.
The inseparable case is A336102.
A separable instead of alternating version is A336103.
The version for partitions is A345165.
The version for factorizations is A348380, complement A348379.

A000670 counts sequences covering an initial interval, anti-run A005649.
A001250 counts alternating permutations, complement A348615.
A003242 counts Carlitz (anti-run) compositions, ranked by A333489.
A025047 = alternating compositions, ranked by A345167, also A025048/A025049.
A049774 counts permutations avoiding the consecutive pattern (1,2,3).
A325534 counts separable partitions, ranked by A335433.
A325535 counts inseparable partitions, ranked by A335448.
A345170 counts partitions w/ an alternating permutation, ranked by A345172.

a(n) = if(n==0, 0, if(n%2==0, (n+2)*2^(n/2-3), (n-1)*2^((n-1)/2-2))) \\ Andrew Howroyd, Jan 13 2024

a(n) = A011782(n) - A349055(n).

a(n) = (n+2)*2^(n/2-3) for even n > 0; a(n) = (n-1)*2^((n-5)/2) for odd n. - Andrew Howroyd, Jan 13 2024
