Abstract
We prove the pro- version of the Karras, Pietrowski, Solitar, Cohen and Scott result stating that a virtually free group acts on a tree with finite vertex stabilizers. If a virtually free pro- group has finite centralizes of all non-trivial torsion elements more stronger statement is proved: embeds into a free pro- product of a free pro- group and finite -group. The integral -adic representation theory is used in the proof; it replaces the Stallings theory of ends in the pro- case.
