Abstract
Justin Lanier and the authors recently determined the group normally generated by a single bounding pair map of genus . We related this subgroup with the Chillingworth subgroup and the Casson--Morita's map. In this paper, we extend the results to the case when . Let be the mapping class group, be the Chillingworth subgroup and be the Casson--Morita's -map. We show that and it is generated by a single homological genus 0 bounding pair map. We also construct an element , and show that is normally generated by this single element .
