Abstract: | Using the main result of Madsen and Weiss MW], we compute the mod 2 homology of spin mapping class groups in the stable range.
In earlier work G] we computed the stable mod p homology of the oriented mapping class group, and the methods and results here are very similar. The forgetful map from the
spin mapping class group to the oriented mapping class groups induces a homology isomorphism for odd p but for p=2 it is far from being an isomorphism. We include a general discussion of tangential structures on 2-manifolds and their
mapping class groups and then specialise to spin structures. |
