Feb 22, 2011 at 15:02 comment added Keivan Karai Thank you all for the comments. Yes, as Henry mentioned I meant solvable.

Feb 20, 2011 at 22:48 comment added Mustafa Gokhan Benli Oh I see I read it as "any amenable group".
Feb 20, 2011 at 22:10 comment added HJRW Also, for concision, it might be worth noting that Keivan's example is $\mathbb{Z}\wr\mathbb{Z}$.
Feb 20, 2011 at 22:06 comment added HJRW Presumably Keivan means `any solvable group which is not virtually nilpotent has exponential growth'. This is the Milnor--Wolf Theorem.
Feb 20, 2011 at 19:34 comment added Mustafa Gokhan Benli I think you first sentence is not correct. there are groups of intermediate growth (i.e Grigorchuk group).
