Fibonacci Length of Direct Products of Groups 

H. Doostie and M. Maghasedi

Abstract.  For a non-abelian finite group G = <a1, a2, …,an> the Fibonacci length of G with respect to the ordered generating set A = {a1, a2, …, an} is the least integer l such that for the sequence of elements xi = ai, 1 i  n, xn+I = , I  1, of G, the equations xl+i = ai, 1  i  n hold. The question posed in 2003 by P.P. Campbell that "Is there any relationship between the lengths of finite groups G, H and G x H?" In this paper we answer this question when at least one of the groups is a non-abelian 2-generated group.
