Also the number of compositions of n into an even number of parts with alternating parts equal. These are finite even-length sequences q of positive integers summing to n such that q(i) = q(i+2) for all possible i. For example, the a(2) = 1 through a(8) = 11 compositions are:
  (1,1)  (1,2)  (1,3)      (1,4)  (1,5)          (1,6)  (1,7)

The odd-length version is A062968.
The version with alternating parts weakly decreasing is A114921, or A342528 if odd-length compositions are included.
The version with alternating parts unequal is A342532, or A224958 if odd-length compositions are included (unordered: A339404/A000726).
Allowing odd lengths as well as even gives A342527.

These are finite sequences q of positive integers summing to n such that q(i) >= q(i+2) for all possible i.
The strict case (alternating parts are strictly decreasing) is A000041. Is there a bijective proof?
Yes. Construct a Ferrers diagram by placing odd parts horizontally and even parts vertically in a fishbone pattern. The resulting Ferrers diagram will be for an ordinary partition and the process is reversible. It does not appear that this method can be applied to give a formula for this sequence. - Andrew Howroyd, Mar 25 2021

Here, a finite sequence is concave if each term (other than the first or last) is at least the average of the two adjacent terms. - Eric M. Schmidt, Sep 29 2013

The differences of a sequence are defined as if the sequence were increasing, so for example the differences of (3,1,2) are (-2,1). Then a(n) is the number of compositions of n with weakly decreasing differences. - Gus Wiseman, May 15 2019

A composition of n is a finite sequence of positive integers summing to n.
