Some homological invariants of mapping class group of a 3-dimensional handlebody (2001)

Abstract
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.. Comment: 8 pages, 1 figure
