Abstract: Let varphicolonGammaoG be a homomorphism of groups. We consider factorizations GammaxrightarrowfMxrightarrowgG of varphi such that either g or f are universal normal maps (namely, crossed modules). These two factorizations are natural generalizations of the usual normal closure and normalizer of a subgroup. Iterating these universal factorizations yield towers related, on the one hand, to hypercentral group extensions, Bousfield's localizations, and relative Schur multipliers. Dually, they extend to a relative situation, the automorphisms tower of a centerless group. Our constructions have strong ties to topological constructions.
