Summary: The Product Conjecture for the homological Bieri-Neumann-Strebel-Renz invariants is proved over a field. Under certain hypotheses the Product Conjecture is shown to also hold over \(\mathbb{Z}\), even though D. Schütz has recently shown that the Conjecture is false in general over \(\mathbb{Z}\). Our version over \(\mathbb{Z}\) is applied in a joint paper with \textit{D. Kochloukova} [Groups Geom. Dyn. 4, No. 2, 263-273 (2010; Zbl 1214.20048)] to show that for all \(n\) Thompson's group \(F\) contains subgroups of type \(F_n\) which are not of type \(\text{FP}_{n+1}\).
