Abstract

In an earlier paper, the author constructed an infinite family of 3-bridge links each of which admits infinitely many 3-bridge spheres up to isotopy. In this paper, we prove that if a prime, unsplittable link L in S3 admits infinitely many 3-bridge spheres up to isotopy then L belongs to the family.
