%0 Journal Article %T Some homological invariants of mapping class group of a 3-dimensional handlebody %A Susumu Hirose %J Mathematics %D 2001 %I arXiv %X We show that, if g is more than or equal to 2, the virtual cohomological dimension of the mapping class group of a 3-dimensional handlebody of genus g is equal to 4g-5 and the Euler number of it is equal to 0. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0102184v1
