Also, for n > 0, the number of totally symmetric (n-1)-dimensional partitions which fit in an (n-1)-dimensional box whose sides all have length 5.

There is no conjectured formula for a(n).

The formula a(n,d) = Product_{i_1=1..n} Product_{i_2=i_1..n} ... Product_{i_d=i_(d-1)..n} (i_1+i_2+...+i_d-d+2)/(i_1+i_2+...+i_d-d+1) gives the number of totally symmetric d-dimensional partitions that fit in a box whose sides all have length n, for d = 1, 2, and 3. For d > 3 this formula fails. In particular, when d=4 it produces the sequence: 1, 2, 6, 32, 352, 9216, 661504, ... rather than the sequence above.
