Abstract

Let (G;N) be a pair of groups. In this article, first we con-
struct a relative central extension for the pair (G;N) such that special
types of covering pair of (G;N) are homomorphic image of it. Second, we
show that every perfect pair admits at least one covering pair. Finally,
among extending some properties of perfect groups to perfect pairs, we
characterize covering pairs of a perfect pair (G;N) under some extra
assumptions.
