A geometric approach to the Johnson homomorphisms (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
We re-construct the Johnson homomorphisms as an embeddig of the Torelli
group
into the completed Goldman-Turaev Lie bialgebra. Then the image is
included in the
kernel of the Turaev cobracket. In the case where the boundary is
connected,
the Turaev cobracket clarifies a geometric meaning of the Morita traces.
Time permitting, we also discuss the case of holed discs.
This talk is based on a joint work with Yusuke Kuno (Tsuda College).
