We consider the "intrinsic" symmetry group of a two-component link LL, defined to be the image Σ(L)Σ(L) of the natural homomorphism from the standard symmetry group $\MCG(S^3,L)$ to the product $\MCG(S^3) \cross \MCG(L)$. This group, first defined by Whitten in 1969, records directly whether LL is isotopic to a link $L…
