%N A185171 Dimensions of primitive Lie algebras connected with the Mantaci-Reutenauer algebra MR^(2).
%C A185171 Maybe the definition should say: "Number of generators of degree n ...". The paper is a little unclear.

%C A185171 An unmarked cyclic composition of n >= 1 is an equivalence class of ordered partitions of n such that two such ordered partitions are equivalent iff one can be obtained from the other by rotation.
%C A185171 Here, a(n) is the number of aperiodic unmarked cyclic compositions of n where up to two colors can be used.
%C A185171 It is also the CHK (circular, identity, unlabeled) transform of the sequence 2, 2, 2, ... See the link by Bowers about such transforms.
%C A185171 If c = (c(n): n >= 1) is the input sequence with g.f. C(x) = Sum_{n >= 1} c(n)*x^n, then the g.f. of the output sequence ((CHK c)_d: d >= 1) is -Sum_{d >= 1} (mu(d)/d) * log(1 - C(x^d)). Here, c(n) = 2 for all n >= 1, and thus, C(x) = 2*x/(1 - x). It follows that the g.f. of the output sequence is -Sum_{d >= 1} (mu(d)/d) * log(1 - 2*x^d/(1 - x^d)).

%e A185171 Suppose we have two colors, say, A and B. Here, a(1) = 2 because we have the following aperiodic unmarked cyclic compositions of n = 1: 1_A and 1_B.
%e A185171 We have a(2) = 3 because we have the following aperiodic unmarked cyclic compositions of n = 2: 2_A, 2_B, and 1_A + 1_B.
%e A185171 We have a(3) = 8 because we have the following aperiodic unmarked cyclic compositions of n = 3: 3_A and 3_B; 1_X + 2_Y, where (X, Y) \in {(A, A), (A, B), (B, A), (B, B)}; 1_A + 1_B + 1_B and 1_B + 1_A + 1_A.
