On the finitely generated Hausdorff spectrum of spinal groups

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study the finitely generated Hausdorff spectrum of spinal automorphism groups acting on rooted trees. Given any α∈[0,1]α\in [0,1], we construct a branch group GαG_α such that GαG_α has a finitely generated subgroup HH where HH has Hausdorff dimension αα in GG. Using results by Barnea, Shalev and Klopsch we further deduce that the finitely generated Hausdorff spectrum of this group GαG_α contains Lα∪([0,1]∩L)\mathcal{L}_α\cup ([0, 1] \cap \mathcal{L}), where L\mathcal{L} is a countable subset of Q\mathbb{Q} and Lα\mathcal{L}_α is a certain set of countably many irrational numbers in the interval [0,α][0,α]. This answers a question of Benjamin Klopsch.
