COMMENTS

Column k is Dirichlet convolution of mu(n) with k^n.
The coefficients of the polynomial of row n are given by the n-th row of triangle A054525; for example row 4 has polynomial -k^2+k^4.

FORMULA
|
T(n,k) = Sum_{d|n} k^d * mu(n/d).
T(n,k) = k^n - Sum_{d<n,d|n} T(d,k).
T(n,k) = A143325(n,k) * k.
T(n,k) = A074650(n,k) * n.
So Sum_{d|n} k^d * mu(n/d) == 0 (mod n), this is a generalization of Fermat's little theorem k^p - k == 0 (mod p) for primes p to an arbitrary modulus n (see the Smyth link). - Franz Vrabec, Feb 09 2021

EXAMPLE
|
T(2,3)=6, because there are 6 primitive words of length 2 over 3-letter alphabet {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.
