It is proved that every computable function on a group (with certain necessary restrictions) can be realized up to equivalence as a length function of elements by embedding in an appropriate finitely presented group. As an example, the length of , the th power of an element of a finitely presented group, can grow as for each computable . This answers a question of Gromov [2]. The main tool is a refined version of the Higman embedding established in this paper, which preserves the lengths of elements.
