A small normal generating set for the handlebody subgroup of the Torelli group

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We prove that the handlebody subgroup of the Torelli group of an orientable surface is generated by genus one BP-maps. As an application, we give a normal generating set for the handlebody subgroup of the level dd mapping class group of an orientable surface.
