In combinatorial mathematics, a **necklace polynomial** is a polynomial that counts the number of different ways to color a necklace (or circular arrangement) made from beads of different colors, considering rotations as indistinguishable. The concept is a part of the field of combinatorial enumeration and is connected to group theory and Burnside's lemma.
