Comments

Each chiral pair is counted as one when enumerating unoriented arrangements. For n=1, the figure is a line segment with one edge. For n=2, the figure is a square with 4 edges. For n=3, the figure is a cube with 12 edges. The number of edges is n*2^(n-1).

Also the number of unoriented colorings of the regular (n-2)-dimensional simplexes in a regular n-dimensional orthoplex.

Examples

			Table begins with T(1,1):
1   2     3      4       5        6         7          8          9 ...
1   6    21     55     120      231       406        666       1035 ...
1 144 12111 358120 5131650 45528756 288936634 1433251296 5887880415 ...
For T(2,2)=6, the arrangements are AAAA, AAAB, AABB, ABAB, ABBB, and BBBB.

Formula

The algorithm used in the Mathematica program below assigns each permutation of the axes to a partition of n and then considers separate conjugacy classes for axis reversals. It uses the formulas in Balasubramanian's paper. If the value of m is increased, one can enumerate colorings of higher-dimensional elements beginning with T(m,1).

T(n,k) = A337407(n,k) - A337409(n,k) = (A337407(n,k) - A337410(n,k)) / 2 = A337409(n,k) + A337410(n,k).
