Groups acting on trees (20E08) Limits, profinite groups (20E18) Generators, relations, and presentations of groups (20F05) Derived series, central series, and generalizations for groups (20F14) Periodic groups; locally finite groups (20F50)

Abstract: We study a twisted version of Grigorchuk's first group, and stress its similarities and differences to its model. In particular, we show that it admits a finite endomorphic presentation, has infinite-rank multiplier, and does not have the congruence property.
