Links, pictures and the homology of nilpotent groups

TL;DR: In this article, a geometric slice-like characterization for the vanishing of Milnor's link invariants was given by proving the k-slice conjecture, which states that a link has vanishing Milnor -invariants of length 2k if and only if bounds disjoint surfaces in a four disk in such a way that the fundamental group of the complement admits free nilpotent quotients of class k.

Infinitesimal Morita homomorphisms and the tree-level of the LMO invariant

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the "infinitesimal" version of the k-th Morita homomorphism, which corresponds to the original version by a canonical isomorphism.

Cohomology of nilpotent groups of class 2

TL;DR: In this paper, the cohomology rings of a number of nilpotent groups of class 2 for appropriate coefficients are computed for a given set of coefficients, and the basic tool is a suitable small free resolution.

From mapping class groups to monoids of homology cobordisms: a survey

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors survey recent works on the structure of the monoid of homology cobordisms, and outline their relations with the study of the mapping class group.

On the Cohomology of Compact Homogeneous Spaces of Nilpotent Lie Groups

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the theory of invariant integrals does not hold for compact homogeneous spaces of non-compact Lie groups and that the cohomology of a homogeneous space of a compact Lie group can be obtained from the complex of invariants on it.

The Group Ring Of a Class Of Infinite Nilpotent Groups

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the discrete group ring Γ of a finitely generated torsion free nilpotent group over a field of characteristic zero and showed that if Δ is the ideal of Γ spanned by all elements of the form G − 1, where G ∈, then and the only element belonging to Δw for all w is the zero element.
