Maximal subgroups of multi-edge spinal groups. (English) Zbl 1405.20020

Authors’ abstract: A multi-edge spinal group is a subgroup of the automorphism group of a regular \(p\)-adic rooted tree, generated by one rooted automorphism and a finite number of directed automorphisms sharing a common directing path. We prove that torsion multi-edge spinal groups do not have maximal subgroups of infinite index. This generalizes a result of E. L. Pervova [Int. J. Algebra Comput. 15, No. 5–6, 1129–1150 (2005; Zbl 1109.20032)] for GGS-groups.
