A small normal generating set for the handlebody subgroup of the Torelli group
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 d mapping class group of an orientable surface.
