EXAMPLE

The Lie algebras in question and their dimensions are the following:

A_l: l(l+2), l >= 1,

B_l: l(2l+1), l >= 2,

C_l: l(2l+1), l >= 3,

D_l: l(2l-1), l >= 4,

G_2: 14, F_4: 52, E_6: 78, E_7: 133, E_8: 248.

MAPLE

M:=4200; M2:=M^2; sa:=[seq(l*(l+2), l=1..M)]; sb:=[seq(l*(2*l+1), l=2..M)]; sd:=[seq(l*(2*l-1), l=4..M)]; se:=[14, 52, 78, 133, 248]; s:=convert(sa, set) union convert(sb, set) union convert(sd, set) union convert(se, set); t:=convert(s, list); for i from 1 to nops(t) do if t[i] <= M2 then lprint(i, t[i]); fi; od:

MATHEMATICA

max = 26; sa = Table[ k*(k+2), {k, 1, max}]; sb = Table[ k*(2k+1), {k, 2, max}]; sd:= Table[ k*(2k-1), {k, 4, max}]; se = {14, 52, 78, 133, 248}; Select[ Union[sa, sb, sd, se], # <= max^2 &](* From Jean-François Alcover, Nov 18 2011, after Maple *)
