contents The first $\ell^2$ Betti number of a group is non-decreasing under various embeddings arising from first order logic. Strict inequality is proved for elementary embeddings of non-abelian proper subgroups within torsion free hyperbolic groups using Perin's classification of such inclusions. The monotonicity is further demonstrated for existential embeddings of arbitrary finitely generated groups.
