The great min-frame rotatope conjecture

Hq Sa1 x Sa2 x ... x Sak = the number of subsets of {a1,a2,...,ak} that sum to give q.

...where Sa is an a-net-space hypersphere (i.e. a=1 identifies the circle)?

Yep, otherwise we'd have to take one from everything.

Any idea how you'd go about proving this?

I'd guess it's right and will implement it in my Python program, but it still deserves a proof :P

I'd love to be able to prove it, if I knew where to start. I think it will take something stronger than Mayer-Vietoris. I'll ask my topology lecturer about it. He's marking my honours thesis, but I get the marks back on sunday so I'll talk to him after that.
