A143326 Table T(n,k) by antidiagonals. T(n,k) is the number of primitive (=aperiodic) k-ary words with length less or equal to n (n,k >= 1). 2

COMMENTS

The coefficients of the polynomial of row n are given by the n-th row of triangle A134541; for example row 4 has polynomial -k+k^3+k^4.

FORMULA

T(n,k) = Sum_{1<=j<=n} Sum_{d|j} k^d * mu(j/d).

T(n,k) = Sum_{1<=j<=n} A143324(j,k).

T(n,k) = A143327(n,k) * k.

EXAMPLE

T(2,3) = 9, because there are 9 primitive words of length less or equal to 2 over 3-letter alphabet {a,b,c}: a, b, c, ab, ac, ba, bc, ca, cb; note that the non-primitive words aa, bb and cc don't belong to the list; secondly note that the words in the list need not be Lyndon words, for example ba can be derived from ab by a cyclic rotation of the positions.
