Finite generation of Torelli and IA_n homology modules

Let In,1\mathcal{I}_{n,1} be the Torelli group of a genus-nn surface with one boundary component and let IAn\operatorname{IA}_n be the IA-automorphism group of the free group of rank nn. Their rational homology groups carry actions of Sp2nZ\operatorname{Sp}_{2n}\mathbb{Z} and GLnZ\operatorname{GL}_n\mathbb{Z}, respectively. Unstable finite-generation conjecture. For each i1i\geq 1 and each n1n\geq 1, Hi(In,1;Q)H_i(\mathcal{I}_{n,1};\mathbb{Q}) is a finitely generated module over Sp2nZ\operatorname{Sp}_{2n}\mathbb{Z}, and Hi(IAn;Q)H_i(\operatorname{IA}_n;\mathbb{Q}) is a finitely generated module over GLnZ\operatorname{GL}_n\mathbb{Z}. The conjecture concerns the full, potentially infinite-dimensional homology representations, extending the preceding stable finite-dimensionality proposal; the source gives no resolution.
