Abstract: We are interested in comparing properties of symplectic mapping class groups of symplectic manifolds of dimension four or higher with properties of classical mapping class groups of surfaces. For $ngeq2$, consider a configuration of Lagrangian $S^n$s in a Weinstein domain $M^{2n}$. If it is analogous, in some sense that we make precise, to a configuration of exact Lagrangian $S^1$s on a surface $Sigma$, we show that any relation between Dehn twists in the $S^n$s must also hold between the $S^1$s. Such analogous pairs of configurations include plumbings of $T^{a}st{S}^1$s and $T^{a}st{S}^n$s with the same plumbing graph, and vanishing cycles for a two-variable singularity and for its stabilisation. We give a number of corollaries for subgroups of symplectic mapping class groups.
