We develop a theory of equivariant group presentations and relate them to the second homology group of a group. Our main application says that the second homology group of the Torelli subgroup of the mapping class group is finitely generated as an $Sp(2g,\mathbb{Z})$-module.

Finite generation, algebraicity, and representation stability for homology of Torelli groups
Proves finite generation of H_k(I_g; Z) for k ≤ g-2 and that rational homology is an algebraic Sp(2g,Z)-representation, turning conditional cohomology computations into theorems and proving Morita's conjecture.
