COMMENTS
A k-composition of n is an ordered collection of k positive integers (parts) which sum to n.
Two k-compositions are cyclically equivalent if one can be obtained from the other by a cyclic permutation of its parts.
The reverse of a k-composition is the k-composition obtained by writing its parts in reverse.
For example the reverse of 123 is 321.
A k-reverse of n is a k-composition of n which is cyclically equivalent to its reverse.
For example 114 is a 3-reverse of 6 since its set of cyclic equivalents {114,411,141} contains its reverse 411. But 123 is not a 3-reverse of 6 since its set of cyclic equivalents {123,312,231} does not contain its reverse 321.

FORMULA
R(n,k) = Sum_{d|gcd(n,k)} A180279(n/d, k/d). - Andrew Howroyd, Oct 08 2017
From Petros Hadjicostas, Oct 21 2017: (Start)
For proofs of these formulae, see the links.
R(n,k) = Sum_{d|gcd(n,k)} phi^{(-1)}(d)*(k/d)*A119963(n/d, k/d), where phi^{(-1)}(d) = A023900(d) is the Dirichlet inverse function of Euler's totient function.
G.f.: Sum_{s >= 1} phi^{(-1)}(s)*g(x^s, y^s), where phi^{(-1)}(s) = A023900(s) and g(x,y) = (x*y+x+1)*(x*y-x+1)*(x+1)*x*y/(x^2*y^2+x^2-1)^2.

1 1
1 2 1
1 3 3 1

1 5 4 10 5 1
1 6 9 12 15 6 1
1 7 9 19 15 21 7 1
1 8 10 24 30 20 28 8 1
1 9 12 36 26 54 28 36 9 1
For example row 8 is 1 7 9 19 15 21 7 1
We have R(8,3)=9 because there are 9 3-reverses of 8. In classes: {116,611,161} {224,422,242}, and {233,323,332}.
We have R(8,6)=21 because all 21 6-compositions of 8 are 6-reverses of 8.
