Jan 8, 2014 at 21:53 comment added Archimondain sorry for that, my english is sometimes a bit approximative ;)
Jan 8, 2014 at 18:33 comment added Dan Turetsky Correct, a degree is not a strong minimal cover of itself. I suspect your confusion is with the final line. The question is not "don't have themselves as strong minimal covers", it's "don't themselves have strong minimal covers".

Jan 8, 2014 at 12:29 comment added Denis The problem was not here. In your definition $a$ has to be strictly above $b$, so $a$ cannot be equal to $b$.

Jan 8, 2014 at 11:29 comment added Archimondain By "below b", I don't mean "strictly below b" (I assume that is what you disagree with). I'll edit that so there is no confusion.
Jan 8, 2014 at 11:19 comment added Denis Then your question does not make sense, because it is now impossible for a degree to have itself as strong minimal cover.
Jan 8, 2014 at 11:15 comment added Archimondain You are right. I edited the question.

Jan 8, 2014 at 11:08 comment added Denis from your definition, every degree is its own minimal cover.
