Abstract: We show that if $G$ and $H$ are finitely generated groups whose Hilbert compression exponent is positive, then so is the Hilbert compression exponent of the wreath $GwrH$. We also prove an analogous result for coarse embeddings of wreath products. In the special case $$, $$ our result implies that the Hilbert compression exponent of $$ is at least 1/4, answering a question posed as to whether it has positive Hilbert compression exponent.
