Given $n$ and $k$, I would like to know how to compute$$sum_{substack{x_0 ⊕x_1⊕cdots⊕x_k=0\x_i≥0, 0≤i≤k\sumlimits_{i=0}^kx_i≤n-2k}}binom{n-k-sumlimits_{i=0}^kx_i}k$$ in $O(nk·log n)$ time, where $⊕$ is exclusive or.

I finally figure out an answer. This paper "Nim Fractals" by Tanya Khovanova and Joshua Xiong gives a recursive formula to count the solutions to $$begin{cases} x_0 oplus cdots oplus x_k =0 \sum_{i=0}^{k}x_i=Send{cases}$$ in $O(kS)$. Denote the number as $f(k,S)$. We may utilize $f$ to see that the problem reduces to $sum_{S=0}^{n-2k}binom{n-k-S}{k}f(k,S)$. The overall complexity is $O(nkcdot log(n))$.
