Abstract
We show that if a split link is obtained from a split link in by -Dehn surgery along a trivial knot , then the link is splittable. That is to say, it is impossible to obtain a split link from a split link via a non-trivial twisting. As its corollary, we completely determine when a trivial link is obtained from a trivial link via a twisting.
