COMMENTS

The g.f. is Z(C_8,x)/x^8, the 8-variate cycle index polynomial for the cyclic group C_8, with substitution x[i]->1/(1-x^i), i=1,...,8. Therefore by Polya enumeration a(n+8) is the number of cyclically inequivalent 8-necklaces whose 8 beads are labeled with nonnegative integers such that the sum of labels is n, for n=0,1,2,... See A102190 for Z(C_8,x). See the comment in A032191 on the equivalence of this problem with the one given in the `Name' line. W. Lang (wolfdieter.lang_AT_physik_DOT_uni-karlsruhe_DOT_de), Feb 15 2005.

FORMULA

"CIK[ 8 ]" (necklace, indistinct, unlabeled, 8 parts) transform of 1, 1, 1, 1...

G.f.: (x^8)*(1-3*x+5*x^2+3*x^3-4*x^4+4*x^5+6*x^6-4*x^7+7*x^8-x^9+x^10+x^11)/((1-x)^4*(1-x^2)^2*(1-x^4)*(1-x^8))
