It is shown that a formula that was independently obtained earlier for the number of cyclically irreducible words of length n in a symmetric alphabet of a finitely generated free group of rank k and the Whitney formula for a chromatic polynomial of a simple nonself-intersecting cycle of length n with a variable λ are mutually deducible from one another when λ = 2k. The necessary bijections differ for even and odd values of n. © Springer Science+Business Media, Inc. 2007.
