“…Example] Let p ∈ P \ {2, 3, 5, 7, 13}, π = {2, 5, 7, 13, p} and H = LF (h) given by h(q) = E π if q ∈ π\{p}, h(p) = S π , h(t) = ∅ if t / ∈ π. Then H is not a covering formation but n H = H. The class H × E π = (G | G = A × B, A ∈ H, B ∈ E π ) gives an example with full characteristic; see [16,Lemma 5.7]. Proposition 3.2 and Theorem 3.1 in [17] give conditions to guarantee that a subgroup-closed saturated formation H satisfying n H = H is a covering formation, in terms of the canonical local definition of H.…”
