Meta-nilpotent knot invariants and symplectic automorphism groups of free nilpotent groups (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
There are many developments of fibered knots and homology cylinders from topological and algebraic viewpoints. In a converse sense, we discuss meta-nilpotent localization of knot groups,
which can deal with any knot like fibered knots. The monodoromy can be regarded as a symplectic automorphism of free nilpotent group, and the conjugacy classes in the outer automorphism groups produce knot invariants in terms of Johnson homomorphisms. In this talk, I show the construction of the monodoromies, and some results on the knot invariants. I also talk approaches from Fox pairings.
