Abstract

We study decorated mapping class groups, i.e., mapping class groups of surfaces with marked points and boundary components, and their behaviour under stabilization maps with respect to the genus, the number of punctures and boundary components. Decorated mapping class groups are non-trivial extensions of the undecorated mapping class group, and the first result states that the extension is homologically trivial when one stabilizes with respect to the genus. The second result implies that one also gets splittings of homology groups when stabilizing with respect to the number of punctures and boundary components.
