  Abstract:
A group G is (l,m,n)-generated if it is a quotient group of the triangle group T(l,m,n)= < x,y,z|xl=ym=zn=xyz=1 > . In some research papers the problem is posed to find all possible (l,m,n)-generations for the non-abelian finite simple groups. In this paper we partially answer this question for the Conway group C01. We find all (2,p,q)-generations, p and q are distinct primes, for C01.
