I describe a class of groups acting on rooted trees that all have intermediate word growth between polynomial and exponential. The argument constructs a functional equation on the growth formal power series, and derives the growth properties from its analytical behaviour. This places under a unified proof all known or conjectured examples of such groups, and answers a few open questions by Rostislav Grigorchuk.
