There are A003239(8) = 810 balanced binary necklaces of length 16. A022553(8) = 800 of them are primitive. a(n) = 10 are not. See A387130 for a list.
		

Formula

a(n) = A003239(n) - A022553(n).
a(n) = A115118(n) + 2 * A387130(n).

A387130 a(n) is the number of complement pairs of imprimitive (periodic) 2n-bead balanced binary necklaces.

A386946(n) is the number of primitive 2n-bead balanced binary necklaces (corresponding to Lyndon words), and A115118 is the number of those that are self-complementary (i.e., can be rotated so that all beads change color). Their difference 2*a(n) is the number of those that are not self-complementary. a(n) is the number pairs of distinct complements.
