Poly-free groups are constructed as iterated semidirect products of free groups. The class of poly-free groups includes the classical pure braid groups, fundamental groups of fiber-type hyperplane arrangements, and certain subgroups of the automorphism groups of free groups. The purpose of this article is to compute centralizers of certain natural Lie subalgebras of the Lie algebra obtained from the descending central series of poly-free groups G including some of the geometrically interesting…

Lower central series and split extensions
Following Lazard, we study the N-series of a group G and their associated graded Lie algebras. The main examples we consider are the lower central series and Stallings’ rational and mod-p versions of

We prove that pure braid groups of closed surfaces are almost-direct products of residually torsion free nilpotent groups and hence residually torsion free nilpotent. As a corollary, we prove also
