Abstract: Given a quasi-projective variety X with only Kawamata log terminal singularities, we study the obstructions to extending finite 'etale covers from the smooth locus $X_{mathrmreg}$ of $X$ to $X$ itself. A simplified version of our main results states that there exists a Galois cover $YightarrowX$, ramified only over the singularities of $X$, such that the 'etale fundamental groups of $Y$ and of $Y_{mathrmreg}$ agree. In particular, every 'etale cover of $Y_{mathrmreg}$ extends to an 'etale cover of $Y$. As first major application, we show that every flat holomorphic bundle defined on $Y_{mathrmreg}$ extends to a flat bundle that is defined on all of $Y$. As a consequence, we generalise a classical result of Yau to the singular case: every variety with at worst terminal singularities and with vanishing first and second Chern class is a finite quotient of an Abelian variety. As a further application, we verify a conjecture of Nakayama and Zhang describing the structure of varieties that admit polarised endomorphisms.
