Sofic groups: graph products and graphs of groups

Laura Ciobanu, Derek F. Holt and Sarah Rees

Vol. 271 (2014), No. 1, 53–64
Abstract

We prove that graph products of sofic groups are sofic, as are graphs of groups for which vertex groups are sofic and edge groups are amenable.

Keywords
sofic, graph products, free and direct products, groups of graphs
