Twisting equivalent links and the isotopy type of the resulting links
Take any link $L_1$ with an unknotted component
$K$, cut along the disk bounded by K (which usually intersects some of the
other components of $L_1$ transversally ), twist n times, and reglue. Let us …

Homogeneous links and crossings smoothing
Let $L$ be an oriented homogeneous link and let $D$ be an oriented diagram of $L$ wich is not necessarily a homogeneous diagram. Fix some crossing $c$ in $D$ and construct the diagram $D_0$ by smoothi …
