The Torelli group is the subgroup of the mapping class group that acts trivially on homology. Putman's subsurface Torelli groups are an important construction for working with the Torelli group, as they restore the functoriality essential for the inductive arguments on which mapping class group arguments are invariably based. The other important structure on the Torelli group is the Johnson homomorphism. The contraction of the image of the Johnson homomorphism is the Chillingworth class. In this thesis, a combinatorial description of the Chillingworth class is derived for the subsurface Torelli groups. This thesis also brings in the naturality and uniqueness properties on the map whose image is the dual of the Chillingworth classes of the s...
