Abstract: The degree of commutativity of a group $G$ measures the probability of choosing two elements in $G$ which commute. There are many results studying this for finite groups. In [AMV17], this was generalised to infinite groups. In this note, we compute the degree of commutativity for wreath products of the form $mathbbZwrmathbbZ$ and $FwrmathbbZ$ where $F$ is any finite group.
