%N Triangular array read by rows, made up of traditional exceptional groups plus A1: as A1,G2,F4,E6,E7,E8 as m(i) exponents as in A005556, A005763, A005776.
%C Extra condition of group dimension: b[n] = a[n] + 1 ; DimGroup = Apply[Plus, b[n]]; Table[Apply[Plus, b[n]], {n, 0, 5}] {3, 14, 52, 78, 133, 248} Extra condition of Betti sum: Table[Apply[Plus, CoefficientList[Expand[Product[(1 + t^(2*a[i][[n]] + 1)), {n, 1,Length[a[i]]}]], t]], {i, 0, 5}] {2, 4, 16, 64, 128, 256} These exponents are necessary to the Poincaré polynomials for these exceptional groups.
