AbstractGoussarov and the author independently proved that two knots in S3 have the same values of finite type invariants of degree <n if and only if they are Cn-equivalent, which means that they are equivalent up to modification by a kind of geometric commutator of class n. This property does not generalize to links with more than one component.In this paper, we study the case of Brunnian links, which are links whose proper sublinks are trivial. We prove that if n ≥ 1, then an (n+1)-component Brunnian link L is Cn-equivalent to an unlink. We also prove that if n ≥ 2, then L can not be distinguished from an unlink by any Goussarov–Vassiliev finite type invariant of degree <2n.

We construct an infinite family of brunnian links whose projections give the family of Venn diagrams for many sets constructed by Edwards.

Brunnian links have been known for a long time in knot theory, whereas the idea of n-triviality is a recent innovation. We illustrate the relationship between the two concepts with four short theorems.

A link L in the 3-sphere is called Brunnian if every proper sublink of L is trivial. In a previous paper, Habiro proved that the restriction to Brunnian links of any Goussarov–Vassiliev finite type invariant of (n + 1)-component links of degree < 2n is trivial. The purpose of this paper is to study the first nontrivial case. We show that the restriction of an invariant of degree 2n to (n + 1)-component Brunnian links can be expressed as a quadratic form on the Milnor link-homotopy invariants of length n + 1.

We apply skein relations to derive recurrence relations for the HOMFLY polynomials of a family of Brunnian links. Solution of the recurrence relations yields closed-form formulas for the HOMFLY and hence the Jones polynomials.

We present two practical and widely applicable methods, including some criteria and a general procedure, for detecting Brunnian property of a link, if each component is known to be unknot. The methods are based on observation and handwork. They are used successfully for all Brunnian links known so far. Typical examples and extensive experiments illustrate their efficiency. As an application, infinite families of Brunnian links are created and we establish a general way to construct new ones in bulk.
