A062733 Maximal degree of an irreducible representation of the group SL(n,2) (the group of nonsingular n X n matrices over GF(2) ).
1, 2, 8, 70, 1240, 41664, 2731008

Examples
a(2) = 2 because SL(2,2) is isomorphic to the symmetric group S_3 and the degrees are 1,1,2.
Formula
For n > 3, this appears to coincide with the absolute values of the column k=2 of A135950, which would imply a(n) = 2^((n-2)*(n-3)/2) * (2^n - 1) * (2^(n-1) - 1) / 3. - Andrei Zabolotskii, May 27 2025
