%N The dimension of the space of invariant tensors in the n-th tensor power of the adjoint representation of the exceptional Lie algebra E8.

%C This is known to satisfy a linear recurrence relation with polynomial coefficients. The limit of a[n+1]/a[n] is 248.

%e The n-th tensor power is the trivial representation for n=0 and is the adjoint representation for n=1. For n=2 every invariant tensor is a scalar multiple of a Killing form.
