چکیده

From our previous paper, it is known that the Magnus representation of the Torelli group is not faithful. In this paper, we characterize the kernel of its representation for a certain kind of elements.

Infinite generation of the kernels of the Magnus and Burau representations

Consider the kernel Magg of the Magnus representation of the Torelli group and the kernel Burn of the Burau representation of the braid group. We prove that for g ≥ 2 and for n ≥ 6 the groups Magg and Burn have infinite rank first homology. As a consequence we conclude that neither group has any finite generating set. The method of proof in each case consists of producing a kind of “Johnson-typ...

Composite Kernel Optimization in Semi-Supervised Metric

Machine-learning solutions to classification, clustering and matching problems critically depend on the adopted metric, which in the past was selected heuristically. In the last decade, it has been demonstrated that an appropriate metric can be learnt from data, resulting in superior performance as compared with traditional metrics. This has recently stimulated a considerable interest in the to...

A Note on Solving Prandtl's Integro-Differential Equation

A simple method for solving Prandtl's integro-differential equation is proposed based on a new reproducing kernel space. Using a transformation and modifying the traditional reproducing kernel method, the singular term is removed and the analytical representation of the exact solution is obtained in the form of series in the new reproducing kernel space. Compared with known investigations, its ...

The Johnson homomorphism and its kernel

We give a new proof of a celebrated theorem of Dennis Johnson that asserts that the kernel of the Johnson homomorphism on the Torelli subgroup of the mapping class group is generated by separating twists. In fact, we prove a more general result that also applies to “subsurface Torelli groups”. Using this, we extend Johnson’s calculation of the rational abelianization of the Torelli group not on...

The Kernel of the Magnus Representation of the Automorphism Group of a Free Group Is Not Finitely Generated

In this paper, we show that the abelianization of the kernel of the Magnus representation of the automorphism group of a free group is not finitely generated.
