Groups of finite type: classification and structural properties
Groups of finite type (also called finitely constrained groups), introduced by Grigorchuk, are known to be the closure of regular branch groups. This article explores many of their properties. Firstly, we prove that being finitely generated, just-infinite and strongly complete are equivalent in a vast family of groups of finite type. As a consequence, we prove that the closure of the Hanoi towers group on 3 pegs is just-infinite although the group itself is not. Secondly, we improve the alg…
