I was wondering if compact surfaces were the only compact manifolds with a "big" or "complicated" mapping class group.
Are there higher dimensional manifolds (which are not in some way reducible to …

Explicit computation of the action of a Dehn twist on the fundamental group of a surface
Let $S$ be a compact orientable surface of genus $g$. Now let $p\in S$ and $\gamma$ a closed simple curve on $S$ disjoint from $p$. It is not very difficult to compute the action of a Dehn twist along …
