COMMENTS
A double palindrome is the concatenation of two palindromes. Permuting the symbols will not change the structure. For the purposed of this sequence, valid palindromes include both the empty word and a singleton symbol.

FORMULA
T(n, k) = (Sum_{j=0..k} (-1)^j * binomial(k, j) * A284873(n, k-j)) / k!.
T(n, k) = r(n, k) - Sum_{d|n, d<n} phi(n/d) * T(d,k) where r(2d, k) = d *(stirling2(d,k)+stirling2(d,k+1)), r(2d+1, k) = (2d+1)*stirling2(d+1,k).
