Abstract: Fixing a subgroup $Gamma$ in a group $G$, the commensurability growth function assigns to each $n$ the cardinality of the set of subgroups $Delta$ of $G$ with $[Gamma:GammacapDelta][Delta:GammacapDelta]=n$. For pairs $GammaleqA$, where $A$ is the automorphism group of a $p$-regular tree and $Gamma$ is finitely generated, we show that this function can take on finite, countable, or uncountable cardinals. For almost all known branch groups $Gamma$ (the first Grigorchuk group, the twisted twin Grigorchuk group, Pervova groups, Gupta-Sidki groups, etc.) acting on $p$-regular trees, this function is precisely $alep{h}_0$ for any $n=p^k$.
