In his study of the group of homology cylinders, J Levine [23] made the conjecture that a certain group homomorphism 0 W T ! D 0 is an isomorphism. Both T and D 0 are defined combinatorially using trivalent trees and have strong connections to a variety of topological settings, including the mapping class group, homology cylinders, finite type invariants, Whitney tower intersection theory and the homology of Out.Fn/. In this paper, we confirm Levine’s conjecture by applying discrete Morse theory to certain subcomplexes of a Kontsevich-type graph complex. These are chain complexes generated by trees, and we identify particular homology groups of them with the domain T and range D 0 of Levine’s map. The isomorphism 0 is a key to classifying the structure of links up to grope and Whitney tower concordance, as explained in [6; 5]. In this paper and [3] we apply our result to confirm and improve upon Levine’s conjectured relation between two filtrations of the group of homology cylinders. 57M27, 57M25; 57N10
