Abstract

In 1981 Edgar Enochs conjectured that every module has a
at cover
and finally proved this, independently with Bican and El Bashir, in 2001.
Enochs had in fact considered different types of covers as early as 1963,
for example injective and torsion free covers, and since then a great deal
of effort has been spent on their study. In 2008, Mahmoudi and Renshaw
initiated the study of
at covers of acts over monoids but their definition
of cover was slightly different from that of Enochs. Recently, Bailey and
Renshaw produced some preliminary results on the `other' type of cover
and it is this work that is extended in this paper. We consider free,
divisible, torsion free and injective covers and demonstrate that in some
cases the results are quite different from the module case.
