 Solution

Order the simple roots of the G2 root system with ${\alpha }_1$ long and ${\alpha }_2$ short. This ordering is consistent with the supplied projection in solution; reversing the nodes would interchange the two fundamental Dynkin labels. Choose $({\alpha }_1,{\alpha }_1)=2$, $({\alpha }_2,{\alpha }_2)=2/3$, and $({\alpha }_1,{\alpha }_2)=-1$. With the same row convention for the Cartan matrix as in solution,The positive roots, with their Dynkin labels, areFor the highest weight $(0,1)$, a lowering chain isThe middle three terms form the length-three weight string for the short simple root. The Weyl dimension formula, with this long-first convention, isIt gives seven for $(0,1)$, so the chain exhausts the weight system, with every weight multiplicity equal to one:For $(1,0)$, observe that $2{\alpha }_1+3{\alpha }_2=(1,0)$ is the highest root. Thus this is the Adjoint representation; the twelve root spaces contribute the twelve nonzero weights once, and the rank-two Cartan subalgebra contributes two zero weights. ThereforeThe same Weyl dimension formula gives fourteen, confirming the count.
