%N Number of aperiodic necklaces of n beads of 6 colors; dimensions of free Lie algebras.

%C From _Petros Hadjicostas_, Aug 31 2018: (Start)

%C For each m >= 1, the CHK[m] transform of sequence (c(n): n>=1) has generating function B_m(x) = (1/m)*Sum_{d|m} mu(d)*C(x^d)^{m/d}, where C(x) = Sum_{n>=1} c(n)*x^n is the g.f. of (c(n): n >= 1). As a result, the CHK transform of sequence (c(n): n >= 1) has generating function B(x) = Sum_{m >= 1} B_m(x) = -Sum_{n >= 1} (mu(n)/n)*log(1 - C(x^n)).

%C For n, k >= 1, let a_k(n) = number of aperiodic necklaces of n beads of k colors. We then have (a_k(n): n >= 1) = CHK(c_k(n): n >= 1), where c_k(1) = k and c_k(n) = 0 for all n >= 2, with g.f. C_k(x) = Sum_{n >= 1} c_k(n)*x^n = k*x. The g.f. of (a_k(n): n >= 1) is A_k(x) = Sum_{n >= 1} a_k(n)*x^n = -Sum_{n >= 1} (mu(n)/n)*log(1-k*x^n), which is Herbert Kociemba's general formula below (except for the initial term a_k(0) = 1).

%C For the current sequence, k = 6.
