Jul 21, 2010 at 4:02 comment added Torsten Ekedahl Yes, as $f_*(\pi_1(\tilde X))$ contains commutators and $p$'th powers.
Jul 20, 2010 at 16:46 comment added Topologieee And I have another question. Is $H_1(X)/\pi_*(H_1(\tilde{X}))=\pi_1(X)/\pi_*(\pi_1(\tilde{X}))$?
Jul 20, 2010 at 16:30 comment added Topologieee Thank you for your friendly comment. I was only checking algebraic criterion. Geometrically, it seems obvious that $f$ lifts iff $f_*$ preserves $\mathcal{A}$.
Jul 20, 2010 at 15:51 comment added Torsten Ekedahl $H_1(X;\mathbb Z/p)$ is the fundamental group of $X$ modulo commutators and $p$'th powers. Hence, a cyclic cover of degree $p$ is completely determined by $\mathcal A$. In particular $f$ lifts iff $f_*$ preserves $\mathcal A$.
