In 3-dimensional link homotopy there are various geometric concepts of homotopy triviality and homotopy splitting, and it is generally rather difficult to distinguish these. The first part of the paper compares the notions of link-homotopically trivial in the strong sense, boundary link, homotopically split and Brunnian, exhibiting their relationship, displaying examples and looking at special cases. The second part mainly investigates properties of homotopy split links, e.g. 1-contractibility of the components of a link consisting of two trivial knots (Theorem 6 and Proposition 7). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0919.00057].
