We consider pseudo-Anosov mapping classes on a closed orientable surface of genus $g$ that fix a rank $k$ subgroup of the first homology of the surface. We first show that there exists a uniform constant $C>0$ so that the minimal asymptotic translation length on the curve complex among such pseudo-Anosovs is bounded below by $C over g(2g-k+1)$. This interpolates between results of Gadre-Tsai and of the first author and Shin, who treated the cases of the entire mapping class group ($k = 0$) and the Torelli subgroup ($k = 2g$), respectively. We also discuss possible strategy to obtain an upper bound. Finally, we construct a pseudo-Anosov on a genus $g$ surface whose maximal invariant subspace is of rank $2g-1$ and the asymptotic translation length is of $asymp 1/g$ for all $g$. Such pseudo-Anosovs are further shown to be unable to normally generate the whole mapping class groups. As Lanier-Margalit proved that pseudo-Anosovs with small translation lengths on the Teichmuller spaces normally generate mapping class groups, our observation provides a restriction on how small the asymptotic translation lengths on curve complexes should be if the similar phenomenon holds for curve complexes.

We investigate the translation lengths of group elements that arise in random walks on weakly hyperbolic groups. In particular, without any moment condition, we prove that non-elementary random walks exhibit at least linear growth of translation leng ths. As a corollary, almost every random walk on mapping class groups eventually becomes pseudo-Anosov and almost every random walk on $mathrm{Out}(F_n)$ eventually becomes fully irreducible. If the underlying measure further has finite first moment, then the growth rate of translation lengths is equal to the drift, the escape rate of the random walk. We then apply our technique to investigate the random walks induced by the action of mapping class groups on Teichmuller spaces. In particular, we prove the spectral theorem under finite first moment condition, generalizing a result of Dahmani and Horbez.

We show that if a prime homology sphere has the same Floer homology as the standard three-sphere, it does not contain any incompressible tori.

By the work of Harer, the reduced homology of the complex of curves is a fundamental cohomological object associated to all torsion free finite index subgroups of the mapping class group. We call this homology group the Steinberg module of the mappin g class group. It was previously known that the curve complex has the homotopy type of a bouquet of spheres. Here, we give the first explicit homologically nontrivial sphere in the curve complex and show that under the action of the mapping class group, the orbit of this homology class generates the reduced homology of the curve complex.
We study the action of (big) mapping class groups on the first homology of the corresponding surface. We give a precise characterization of the image of the induced homology representation.
We prove that any mapping torus of a closed 3-manifold has zero simplicial volume. When the fiber is a prime 3-manifold, classification results can be applied to show vanishing of the simplicial volume, however the case of reducible fibers is by far more subtle. We thus analyse the possible self-homeomorphisms of reducible 3-manifolds, and use this analysis to produce an explicit representative of the fundamental class of the corresponding mapping tori. To this end, we introduce a new technique for understanding self-homeomorphisms of connected sums in arbitrary dimensions on the level of classifying spaces and for computing the simplicial volume. In particular, we extend our computations to mapping tori of certain connected sums in higher dimensions. Our main result completes the picture for the vanishing of the simplicial volume of fiber bundles in dimension four. Moreover, we deduce that dimension four together with the trivial case of dimension two are the only dimensions where all mapping tori have vanishing simplicial volume. As a group theoretic consequence, we derive an alternative proof of the fact that the fundamental group $G$ of a mapping torus of a 3-manifold $M$ is Gromov hyperbolic if and only if $M$ is virtually a connected sum $# S^2times S^1$ and $G$ does not contain $mathbb{Z}^2$.
