摘要
Let L be a link consisting of spheres of dimensions p1, p2, and p3 respectively imbedded in Rm such that m - pi > 2 for i = 1, 2, and 3. For such links we define an invariant β (L) ε{lunate} πp1+p2+p3(S2m-3) which is invariant under link homotopy. This invariant is shown to be the stable suspension of a certain link concordance invariant introduced by Haefliger and Steer in 1964. For a certain range of dimensions such links are classified up to link homotopy by the new invariant β(L) and the link homotopy classes of their 2-component sublinks. © 1990.
