A Grigorchuk–Gupta–Sidki (GGS)-group is a subgroup of the automorphism group of the p-regular rooted tree for an odd prime p, generated by one rooted automorphism and one directed automorphism. Pervova proved that all torsion GGS-groups do not have maximal subgroups of infinite index. Here, we extend the result to nontorsion GGS-groups, which include the weakly regular branch, but not branch, GGS-group.
