The Fibonacci group F(2, 7) has been known to be cyclic of order 29 for about five years. This was first established by computer coset enumerations which exhibit only the result, without supporting proofs. The working in a coset enumeration actually contains proofs of many relations that hold in the group. A hand proof that F(2, 7) is cyclic of order 29, based on the working in computer coset enumerations, is presented here.

AbstractWe study some challenging presentations which arise as groups of deficiency zero. In four cases we settle finiteness: we show that two presentations are for finite groups while two are for infinite groups. Thus we answer three explicit questions in the literature and we provide the first published deficiency zero presentation for a group with derived length seven. The tools we use are coset enumeration and Knuth-Bebdix rewriting, which are well-established as methods for proving finiteness or otherwise of a finitely presented group. We briefly comment on their capabilities and compare their performance.
