We prove results on mixing and mixing rates for toral extensions of nonuniformly expanding maps with subexponential decay of correlations. Both the finite and infinite measure settings are considered. Under a Dolgo-pyat-type condition on nonexistence of approximate eigenfunctions, we prove that existing results for (possibly non-Markovian) nonuniformly expanding maps hold also for their toral extensions.

Keywords: Toral extensions, decay of correlations, infinite ergodic theory.
