Abstract: For a commutative ring R with a unit, an R-homology rose is a topological space whose homology groups with R-coefficients agree with those of a bouquet of cirlces. In this paper, we study some special properties of covering spaces and fundamental groups of R-homology roses, from which we obtain some result supporting the Carlsson conjecture on free (Zp)r actions. In addition, for a group G and a field F, we define an integer called the F-gap of G, which is an obstruction for G to be realized as the fundamental group of a 2-dimensional F-homology rose. Furthermore, we discuss how to search candidates of the counterexamples of Wall's D(2)-problem among F-homology roses and F-acyclic spaces.
