In this paper, we find another proof of this fact for the case of 2-links (surface links with spherical components). The proof involves a version of Roseman's theorem [R] for branch-point-free broken surface diagrams of 2-links and a construction of marked graphs from branch-point-free broken surface diagrams. As an application, we find that Brunnian 2-links are ribbon.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-01-25T05:46:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "rosemans theorem", "yoshikawa moves", "branch-point-free broken surface diagrams", "surface links", "marked graph diagrams generates" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 28, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
