COMMENTS
Two color patterns are equivalent if the colors are permuted. An unoriented cycle counts each chiral pair as one, i.e., they are equivalent.
Adnk[d,n,k] in Mathematica program is coefficient of x^k in A(d,n)(x) in Gilbert and Riordan reference.
T(n,k)=Pi_k(C_n) which is the number of non-equivalent partitions of the cycle on n vertices, with at most k parts. Two partitions P1 and P2 of a graph G are said to be equivalent if there is a nontrivial automorphism of G which maps P1 onto P2. - Bahman Ahmadi, Aug 21 2019
In other words, the number of n-bead bracelet structures using a maximum of k different colored beads. - Andrew Howroyd, Oct 30 2019

FORMULA
T(n,k) = Sum_{j=1..k} Ach(n,j)/2 + (1/2n)*Sum_{d|n} phi(d)*A(d,n/d,j), where Ach(n,k) = [n>=0 & n<2 & n==k] + [n>1]*(k*Ach(n-2,k)+Ach(n-2,k-1)+Ach(n-2,k-2)) and A(d,n,k) = [n==0 & k==0] + [n>0 & k>0]*(k*A(d,n-1,k) + Sum_{j|d} A(d,n-1,k-j)).
T(n,k) = (A320747(n,k) + A305749(n,k)) / 2 = A320747(n,k) - A320742(n,k) = A320742(n,k) + A305749(n,k).

For T(7,2)=9, the patterns are AAAAAAB, AAAAABB, AAAABAB, AAAABBB, AAABAAB, AAABABB, AABAABB, AABABAB, and AAABABB; only the last is chiral, paired with AAABBAB.
