Normal 2-Coverings of the Finite Simple Groups and Their Generalizations

Daniela Bubboloni is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Florence (Italy). Her main research interests involve finite groups and graph theory. A peculiar aspect of her research is the application of permutation groups and graph theory to questions of social choice theory, a branch of economics.

Pablo Spiga is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Milano-Bicocca (Italy). His main research interests involve group actions on graphs and other combinatorial structures. His main expertise is in finite primitive groups and their application to the investigation of symmetries of combinatorial structures.

Thomas Weigel is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Milano-Bicocca (Italy). His research interests are in the theory of groups, their representation theory and their cohomology theory. His main expertise is in the theory of groups of Lie-type, and the structure theory and cohomology of profinite groups.
