abstract
The affine index polynomial and the $n$-writhe are invariants of virtual knots which are introduced by Kauffman and by Satoh and Taniguchi independently. They are defined by using indices assigned to each classical crossing, which we call affine indices in this paper. We discuss a relationship between the invariants and generalize them to invariants of virtual links. The invariants for virtual links can be also computed by using cut systems. We also introduce invariants of twisted links by using affine indices.

Classification of virtual links by arc shift move
The paper claims virtual links with all pairwise virtual linking numbers even can be unknotted by arc shifts, and that all other links are classified by the parity pattern of these numbers.
