Abstract:
We denote by the Lamplighter group of a finite group . In this article, we show that if and are two finite groups with at least two elements, then there exists a quasi-isometric embedding from to . We also prove that the quasi-isometry group of contains all finite groups. We then show that the group of automorphisms of has infinite index in .
