Characterization of finitely generated infinitely iterated wreath products.

Abstract: Given a sequence of

(G_{i})_{i i n N}

of finite transitive groups of degree

n_{i}

, let

W_{i} n f t y

be the inverse limit of the iterated permutational wreath products of the first m groups. We prove that

W_{i} n f t y

is (topologically) finitely generated if and only if

p r o d_{i = 1}^{i n f t y} (G_{i} / {G_{i}}^{'})

is finitely generated and the growth of the minimal number of generators of

G_{i}

is bounded by

d ... n_{1} ... n_{i - 1}

for a constant

d

. Moreover we give a criterion to decide whether

W_{i} n f t y

is positively finitely generated.
