Abstract
Let G be a finite group and S a subset of G. Then S is product-free if S \ SS = ;, and S fills G if G� � S [ SS. A product-free set is locally maximal if it is not contained in a strictly larger product-free set. Street and Whitehead [J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 17 (1974), 219–226] defined a group G as filled if every locally maximal product-free set in G fills G. Street and Whitehead classified all abelian filled groups, and conjectured that the finite dihedral group of order 2n is not filled when n = 6k +1 (k � 1). The conjecture was disproved by the current authors in [Austral. Journal of Combinatorics 63 (3) (2015), 385–398], where we also classified the filled groups of odd order. This brief note completes the classification of filled dihedral groups and discusses filled groups of order up to 100.
