Abstract
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 ? are mutually deducible from one another when ? = 2k. The necessary bijections differ for even and odd values of n.
