Homotopy theory is an important sub-field of algebraic topology. It is mainly concerned with the properties and structures of spaces which are invariant under homotopy. Chief among these are the homotopy groups of spaces, specifically those of spheres. Homotopy theory includes a broad set of ideas and techniques, such as cohomology theories, spectra and stable homotopy theory, model categories, spectral sequences, and classifying spaces.

can we take skeletons of covering maps to give new covering maps?
Let $X$ be an $n$-dimensional cell complex.
We attach an $(n+1)$-cell $e^{n+1}$ to $X$ and obtain a new cell complex $X'$.
Take the universal cover (or a general covering space) $\tilde X'$ of $X'$.
