Apr 4, 2017 at 21:44 comment added Arturo Magidin Ah, sorry; I misinterpreted the term, since "abelian cover" is a cover by abelian groups, etc.
Apr 4, 2017 at 21:41 comment added Timm von Puttkamer Yes, I do not want to assume that the proper subgroups are normal. By a normal cover I do not mean that the subgroups of the cover are normal, only that the set of subgroups constituting the cover is closed under conjugation.
Apr 4, 2017 at 18:58 comment added Arturo Magidin When you say "additional", I'm guessing you mean additional to being "proper subgroups", and not additional to being "normal proper subgroups"? Because while very group $G$ has a cyclic cover (and hence an abelian cover), not every group has a normal cover, let alone a normal abelian or normal cyclic cover...
