Abstract: An explicit family of Folner sets is constructed for some directed groups acting on a rooted tree of sublogarithmic valency by alternate permutations. In the case of bounded valency, these groups were known to be amenable by probabilistic methods. The present construction provides a new and independent proof of amenability, using neither random walks, nor word length.

Review text

The author of the article under review establishes a sufficient condition for amenability of groups in terms of the DP property introduced in the paper.
