We compute resonance varieties, characteristic varieties and Alexander polynomials of Torelli groups, and we show that all subgroups containing the Johnson kernel have finite first Betti number, when the genus is at least four. We also prove that, in this range, the $I$-adic completion of the Alexander invariant is finite-dimensional, and the Kahler property for the Torelli group implies the finite generation of the Johnson kernel.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "2012-10-03T07:25:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20J05", "57N05", "11F23", "20G05" ], "keywords": [ "finiteness properties", "resonance varieties", "natural arithmetic group symmetry", "finite first betti number", "johnson kernel" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1002.0673D" } } }
