The degree of commutativity and lamplighter groups

The degree of commutativity of a group G measures the probability of choosing two elements in G which commute. There are many results studying this for finite groups. In [Y. Antolín, A. Martino and E. Ventura, Degree of commutativity of infinite groups, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 145 (2017) 479-485, MR 3577854], this was generalized to infinite groups. In this note, we compute the degree of commutativity for wreath products of the form Z Z and F Z, where F is any finite group.

Abstract

The degree of commutativity of a group G measures the probability of choosing two elements in G which commute. There are many results studying this for finite groups. In [Y. Antolín, A. Martino and E. Ventura, Degree of commutativity of infinite groups, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 145 (2017) 479-485, MR 3577854], this was generalized to infinite groups. In this note, we compute the degree of commutativity for wreath products of the form Z Z and F Z, where F is any finite group.
