COMMENTS
It is known that a(n) satisfies a linear recurrence relation with polynomial coefficients. The limit of a(n+1)/a(n) is 26.
EXAMPLE
a(1)=0 because there is no F_4-invariant linear form on the 26-dimensional representation; a(2)=1 because there is, up to scalars, precisely one invariant quadratic form.
PROG
(LiE) p_tensor(n, [0, 0, 0, 1], F4)|[0, 0, 0, 0] # Returns the value of a(n).
CROSSREFS
The analogous sequence for the (52-dimensional) adjoint representation of F_4 is: A179685.
A similar sequence for G_2 (for its 7-dimensional fundamental irreducible representation) is: A059710.
A similar sequence for B_2 (for its standard 5-dimensional irreducible representation) is: A095922.
For A_n the similar sequence (omitting some 0's) is given by the (n+1)-dimensional Catalan numbers, e.g., A005789 for A_2.
Sequence in context: A149638 A149639 A149640 * A355603 A355507 A259205
