Conjugating cyclic \(n\)-color compositions
MacMahon extensively studied integer compositions, including the notion of conjugation. More recently, Agarwal introduced \(n\)-color compositions and their cyclic versions were considered by Gibson, Gray, and Wang. In this paper, we develop and study a conjugation rule for cyclic \(n\)-color compositions. Also, for fixed \(\ell\), we identify and enumerate the subset of self-conjugate compositions of \(\ell\), as well as establish a bijection between these and the set of cyclic regular compositions of \(\ell\) with only odd parts.
