As applications, we generalize our previous results on Dehn twists to any compact connected oriented surfaces with non-empty boundary. Moreover we embed the `smallest' Torelli group in the sense of Putman into a pro-nilpotent group coming from the Goldman Lie algebra. The graded quotients of the embedding equal the Johnson homomorphisms of all degrees if the boundary is connected.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2012-10-21T06:54:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57N05", "20F34", "32G15" ], "keywords": [ "mapping class groups", "groupoid-theoretical methods", "goldman lie algebra", "dehn twists", "non-empty boundary" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 43, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1109.6479K" } } }
