Abstract

Consider the wreath product HGH\wr G, where H1H\ne 1 is finite and GG is finitely generated. We show that the Assouad-Nagata dimension dimAN(HG)\dim_{AN}(H\wr G) of HGH\wr G depends on the growth of GG as follows: If the growth of GG is not bounded by a linear function, then dimAN(HG)=\dim_{AN}(H\wr G)=\infty, otherwise dimAN(HG)=dimAN(G)1\dim_{AN}(H\wr G)=\dim_{AN}(G)\leq 1.
