Abstract

In this note, we will compute some Gromoll filtration groups Γi+1n+1\Gamma^{n+1}_{i+1} for certain ii when 8n178\leq n \leq 17 and n=4k+218n=4k+2\geq 18. We will also use these results to obtain some information of π1Diff(Dn)\pi_1\mathrm{Diff}_{\partial} (D^n) when 6n156\leq n \leq 15 and π2Diff(D4k+3)\pi_2 \mathrm{Diff}_{\partial} (D^{4k+3}) when 4k+3154k+3\geq 15.
