Aug 7, 2014 at 9:54 comment added YCor @Dmitry: you should edit the second sentence of your question according to Alex' comments.
Aug 7, 2014 at 8:27 comment added Alex Suciu Yes, $H_2$ of an fp group is finitely generated. But, say, $H_3$ needs not be finitely generated. The first such example was given by John Stallings, in a seminal paper, titled, sure enough, A finitely presented group whose 3-dimensional integral homology is not finitely generated, see here.
Aug 7, 2014 at 8:07 comment added Dmitry Vaintrob @Alex: I thought any group homology of a finitely presented group is finite-dimensional. Are there examples where $H_2$ isn't? And yes, "infinite" means infinite-dimensional

Aug 7, 2014 at 4:26 comment added Alex Suciu Also, "infinite homology" means "infinite-dimensional homology" (as $\mathbb{Q}$-vector space), right?
Aug 7, 2014 at 4:24 comment added Alex Suciu Just to make sure: the assertion that $H_i(G,\mathbb{Q})$ is finite-dimensional (for all $i>2$) is an assumption, yes?
