Abstract
A subgroup H ≤ G is commensurated if H : H ∩gHg-1 ∞ for all g ϵ G. We show that a finitely generated branch group is just infinite if and only if every commensurated subgroup is either finite or of finite index. As a consequence, every commensurated subgroup of the Grigorchuk group and many other branch groups of independent interest is either finite or of finite index.
