Equivalently, T(n,k) = number of necklaces with k black beads and n-k white beads (binary necklaces of weight k).
The same sequence arises if we take the table U(n,k) = number of necklaces with n black beads and k white beads and read it by antidiagonals (cf. A241926). - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, May 02 2014
U(n,k) is also equal to the number of ways to express 0 as a sum of k elements in Z/nZ. - Jens Voß, Franklin T. Adams-Watters, N. J. A. Sloane, Apr 30 2014 - May 05 2014. See link ("A Note on Modular Partitions and Necklaces") for proof.
The generating function for column k is given by the substitution x_j -> x^j/(1-x^j) in the cycle index of the Symmetric Group of order k. - R. J. Mathar, Nov 15 2018
From Petros Hadjicostas, Jul 12 2019: (Start)
Regarding the comments above by Voss, Adams-Watters, and Sloane, note that Fredman (1975) proved that the number S(n, k, v) of vectors (a_0, ..., a_{n-1}) of nonnegative integer components that satisfy a_0 + ... + a_{n-1} = k and Sum_{i=0..n-1} i*a_i = v (mod n) is given by S(n, k, v) = (1/(n + k)) * Sum_{d | gcd(n, k)} A054535(d, v) * binomial((n + k)/d, k/d) = S(k, n, v).
This result was also proved by Elashvili et al. (1999), who also proved that S(n, k, v) = Sum_{d | gcd(n, k, v)} S(n/d, k/d, 1). Here, S(n, k, 0) = A241926(n, k) = U(n, k) = T(n + k, k) (where T(n, k) is the current array). Also, S(n, k, 1) = A245558(n, k). See also Panyushev (2011) for more general results and for generating functions.
Finally, note that A054535(d, v) = c_d(v) = Sum_{s | gcd(d,v)} s*Moebius(d/s). These are the Ramanujan sums, which equal also the von Sterneck function c_d(v) = phi(d) * Moebius(d/gcd(d, v))/phi(d/gcd(d, v)). We have A054535(d, v) = A054534(v, d).
It would be interesting to see whether there is a proof of the results by Fredman (1975), Elashvili et al. (1999), and Panyushev (2011) for a general v using Molien series as it is done by Sloane (2014) for the case v = 0 (in which case, A054535(d, 0) = phi(d)). (Even though the columns of array A054535(d, v) start at v = 1, we may start the array at column v = 0 as well.)
(End)
U(n, k) is the number of equivalence classes of k-tuples of residues modulo n, identifying those that differ componentwise by a constant and those that differ by a permutation. - Álvar Ibeas, Sep 21 2021
