On the quasi-transitivity degree of branch groups

Abstract An action of a group G on a set X is said to be quasi- n -transitive if the diagonal action of G on $X^n$ has only finitely many orbits. We show that branch groups, a special class of groups of automorphisms of rooted trees, cannot act quasi-2-transitively on infinite sets.
