With the idea of an eventual classification of 3-bridge links, we define a very nice class of 3-balls (called butterflies) with faces identified by pairs, such that the identification space is $S^{3},$ and the image of a prefered set of edges is a link. Several examples are given. We prove that every link can be represented in this way (butterfly representation). We define the butterfly number of a link, and we show that the butterfly number and the bridge number of a link coincide. This is done by defining a move on the butterfly diagram. We give an example of two different butterflies with minimal butterfly number representing the knot $8_{20}.$ This raises the problem of finding a set of moves on a butterfly diagram connecting diagrams representing the same link. This is left as an open problem.

In this paper we give a simple proof of the equivalence between the rational link associated to the continued fraction $left[ a_{1},a_{2},cdots a_{m}right],$ $a_{i}inmathbb{N}$, and the two bridge link of type $p/q,$ where $p/q$ is the rational given
by $left[ a_{1}%,a_{2},cdots a_{m}right] $. The known proof of this equivalence relies on the two fold cover of a link and the classification of the lens spaces. Our proof is elementary and combinatorial and follows the naive approach of finding a set of movements to transform the rational link given by $left[ a_{1},a_{2},cdots a_{m}right] $ into the two bridge link of type $p/q$.
The following is an amalgamation of four preprints and some computer programs which together represent the current state of our investigations of higher order links. This investigation was motivated by questions discussed and raised in the first auth
ors paper New States of Matter Suggested by New Topological Structures. An important motivation has been to suggest the synthesis of new types of molecules (see the relevant articles listed in the bibliography). This discussion is not final, but we think that the results and methods are worth making public and would be useful for other investigators.
In the present work, we realize the space of string 2-links $mathcal{L}$ as a free algebra over a colored operad denoted $mathcal{SCL}$ (for Swiss-Cheese for links). This result extends works of Burke and Koytcheff about the quotient of $mathcal{L}$
by its center and is compatible with Budneys freeness theorem for long knots. From an algebraic point of view, our main result refines Blaire, Burke and Koytcheffs theorem on the monoid of isotopy classes of string links. Topologically, it expresses the homotopy type of the isotopy class of a string 2-link in terms of the homotopy types of the classes of its prime factors.
Twisted torus links are given by twisting a subset of strands on a closed braid representative of a torus link. T--links are a natural generalization, given by repeated positive twisting. We establish a one-to-one correspondence between positive brai
d representatives of Lorenz links and T--links, so Lorenz links and T--links coincide. Using this correspondence, we identify over half of the simplest hyperbolic knots as Lorenz knots. We show that both hyperbolic volume and the Mahler measure of Jones polynomials are bounded for infinite collections of hyperbolic Lorenz links. The correspondence provides unexpected symmetries for both Lorenz links and T-links, and establishes many new results for T-links, including new braid index formulas.
We study configuration space integral formulas for Milnors homotopy link invariants, showing that they are in correspondence with certain linear combinations of trivalent trees. Our proof is essentially a combinatorial analysis of a certain space of
trivalent homotopy link diagrams which corresponds to all finite type homotopy link invariants via configuration space integrals. An important ingredient is the fact that configuration space integrals take the shuffle product of diagrams to the product of invariants. We ultimately deduce a partial recipe for writing explicit integral formulas for products of Milnor invariants from trivalent forests. We also obtain cohomology classes in spaces of link maps from the same data.
