abstract

This article provides a method to calculate the fixed-point proportion of any iterated wreath product acting on a $d$-regular tree. Moreover, the method applies to a generalization of iterated wreath products acting on a $d$-regular tree, which are not groups. As an application of this generalization, a family of groups of finite type of depth $2$ acting on a $d$-regular tree with $d \geq 3$ and $d \neq 2 \pmod{4}$ is constructed. These groups are self-similar, level-transitive, have positive Hausdorff dimension, and exhibit a positive fixed-point proportion. Unlike other groups with a positive fixed-point proportion known in the literature, the fixed-point proportion of this new family can be calculated explicitly. Furthermore, the iterated Galois group of the polynomial $x^d + 1$ with $d \geq 2$ appears in this family, so its fixed-point proportion is calculated.

    Just-infinite branch pro-p groups introduced earlier by the author are shown to be rigid on trees obtained by deleting levels, forcing every branch action on the p-adic tree to be zero-dimensional and disproving Bosto...

    For many groups of finite type, topological finite generation, just-infiniteness and strong completeness are equivalent, and new algorithms classify the groups up to isomorphism on binary and ternary trees.
