| Summary: | Any group with a finite noncyclic homomorphic image is a finite union of proper subgroups. Given such a group G, we define the covering number of G to be the least positive integer m such that G is the union of m proper subgroups. We present recent results on the determination of the covering numbers of the alternating groups on nine and eleven letters. | |
