Abstract
A description is obtained of the subgroups of groups acting on a tree that do not contain nonabelian free subgroups; it is a new interpretation of a result of Bass. The author considers the class consisting of all groups constructive from cyclic groups using amalgamated free products and HNN-extensions, with certain restrictions. A description is obtained of all the subgroups of groups in that satisfy identities, and it is shown that the groups in satisfy the Tits alternative. The proof uses the techniques of group actions on trees.
