Research Abstract

We completely determined those simple loops on the 2-bridge spheres of 2-bridge links to be null-homotopic or peripheral in the link complements. We also completely determined when two simple loops on the 2-bridge spheres of 2-bridge links to be homotopic in the link complements. As an application of these results, we established a variation of McShane' s identity for 2-bridge links, which gives a formula to express the modulus of the cusp of a 2-bridge link in terms of the complex translation lengths of closed geodesics
