Covering monolithic groups with proper subgroups
Given a finite non-cyclic group $G$, call $sigma(G)$ the smallest number of proper subgroups of $G$ needed to cover $G$. Lucchini and Detomi conjectured that if a nonabelian group $G$ is such that $sigma(G) < sigma(G/N)$ for every non-trivial normal subgroup $N$ of $G$ then $G$ is textit{monolith...
