Quotient groups of IA-automorphisms of a free group of rank 3

Authors:

Abstract: We prove that, for any positive integer

c

, the quotient group

g a m m a_{c} (M_{3}) / g a m m a_{c + 1} (M_{3})

of the lower central series of the McCool group

M_{3}

is isomorphic to two copies of the quotient group

g a m m a_{c} (F_{3}) / g a m m a_{c + 1} (F_{3})

of the lower central series of a free group

F_{3}

of rank

3

as

m a t h b b Z

-modules. Furthermore, we give a necessary and sufficient condition whether the associated graded Lie algebra

m g r (M_{3})

of

M_{3}

is naturally embedded into the Johnson Lie algebra

c a l L (m I A (F_{3}))

of the IA-automorphisms of

F_{3}

.
