On the graded quotients of the $\mathrm{SL}_m$-representation algebras of groups

Takao Satoh

Vol. 312 (2021), No. 2, 477–504
Abstract

We consider certain descending filtrations of the ring of the SL(m, )- representation varieties of free groups and free abelian groups. By using them, we introduce analogs of the Johnson homomorphisms of the automorphism groups of free groups. We show that the first homomorphisms are extended to the automorphism groups of free groups as crossed homomorphisms. Furthermore we show that the extended crossed homomorphisms induce Kawazumi’s cocycles and Morita’s cocycles. This is a generalization of our previous results for the SL(2, )-representation algebras.
