COMMENTS
For a partition p, let l(p) = largest part of p, w(p) = number of 1's in p, m(p) = number of parts of p larger than w(p). The crank of p is given by l(p) if w(p) = 0, otherwise m(p)-w(p).

Also the number of even-length compositions of n with alternating parts strictly decreasing, or properly 2-colored partitions (proper = no equal parts of the same color) with the same number of parts of each color, or ordered pairs of strict partitions of the same length with total n. The odd-length case is A001522, and there are a total of A000041 compositions with alternating parts strictly decreasing (see A342528 for a bijective proof). The a(2) = 1 through a(7) = 8 ordered pairs of strict partitions of the same length are:
(1)(1) (1)(2) (1)(3) (1)(4) (1)(5) (1)(6)
(2)(1) (2)(2) (2)(3) (2)(4) (2)(5)
(3)(1) (3)(2) (3)(3) (3)(4)
(4)(1) (4)(2) (4)(3)
(5)(1) (5)(2)

Conjecture: Also the number of integer partitions y of n without a fixed point y(i) = i, ranked by A352826. This is stated at A238394, but Resta tells me he may not have had a proof. The a(2) = 1 through a(7) = 8 partitions without a fixed point are:
(2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7)
(21) (31) (41) (33) (43)
(211) (311) (51) (61)
(2111) (411) (331)
(3111) (511)
(21111) (4111)
(31111)
(211111)
The version for permutations is A000166, complement A002467.
The version for compositions is A238351.
This is column k = 0 of A352833.
A238352 counts reversed partitions by fixed points, rank statistic A352822.
A238394 counts reversed partitions without a fixed point, ranked by A352830.
A238395 counts reversed partitions with a fixed point, ranked by A352872. (End)
The above conjecture is true. See Section 4 of the Blecher-Knopfmacher paper in the Links section. - Jeremy Lovejoy, Sep 26 2022
