Sofic group

In mathematics, a sofic group is a group whose Cayley graph is an initially subamenable graph, or equivalently a subgroup of an ultraproduct of finite-rank symmetric groups such that every two elements of the group have distance 1. They were introduced by Gromov (1999) as a common generalization of amenable and residually finite groups. The name "sofic", from the Hebrew word סופי meaning "finite", was later applied by Weiss (2000), following Weiss's earlier use of the same word to indicate a generalization of finiteness in sofic subshifts.
