Lifting Automorphisms to Stem Extensions of a Finite Group

A central extension of finite groups e: 0 (--->) A (--->) E (--->) G (--->)1 is said to be a stem extension of G if A is contained in the commutator subgroup E' of E. Schur showed that A must be isomorphic to a subgroup of the finite abelian group M = M(G) = H('2)(G,(//C)('(.))), where ((//C)('(.))) is the group of complex units. In case A (TURNEQ) M, we say that e is a stem cover of G.
