A343943 Number of distinct possible alternating sums of permutations of the multiset of prime factors of n. 3

%I #15 Aug 23 2021 13:37:26

%S 1,1,1,1,1,2,1,1,1,2,1,2,1,2,2,1,1,2,1,2,2,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1,3,1,1,2,2,

%T 2,3,1,2,2,2,1,3,1,2,2,2,1,2,1,2,2,2,1,2,2,2,2,2,1,4,1,2,2,1,2,3,1,2,

%U 2,3,1,3,1,2,2,2,2,3,1,2,1,2,1,4,2,2,2

%N Number of distinct possible alternating sums of permutations of the multiset of prime factors of n.

%C First differs from A096825 at a(525) = 3, A096825(525) = 4.

%C First differs from A345926 at a(90) = 4, A345926(90) = 3.

%C The alternating sum of a sequence (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(i-1) y_i. Of course, the alternating sum of prime factors is also the reverse-alternating sum of reversed prime factors.

%C Also the number of distinct "sums of prime factors" of divisors d|n such that bigomega(d) = bigomega(n)/2 rounded up.

%e The divisors of 525 with 2 prime factors are: 15, 21, 25, 35, with prime factors {3,5}, {3,7}, {5,5}, {5,7}, with distinct sums {8,10,12}, so a(525) = 3.

%Y The half-length submultisets are counted by A114921.

%Y Including all multisets of prime factors gives A305611(n) + 1.

%Y The strict rounded version appears to be counted by A342343.

%Y The version for prime indices instead of prime factors is A345926.

%Y A000005 counts divisors, which add up to A000203.

%Y A001414 adds up prime factors, row sums of A027746.

%Y A056239 adds up prime indices, row sums of A112798.

%Y A071321 gives the alternating sum of prime factors (reverse: A071322).

%Y A097805 counts compositions by alternating (or reverse-alternating) sum.

%Y A103919 counts partitions by sum and alternating sum (reverse: A344612).

%Y A108917 counts knapsack partitions, ranked by A299702.

%Y A276024 and A299701 count positive subset-sums of partitions.

%Y A316524 gives the alternating sum of prime indices (reverse: A344616).

%Y A334968 counts subsequence-sums of standard compositions.
