    The authors provide the first systematic combinatorial treatment of the automorphism lifting problem in the context of graphs. They make consistent use of several new fundamental concepts: the action of the fundamental groupoid, the notion of a voltage space, various kinds of invariance of voltage spaces, and the geometry of the lifted actions by means of transversals over a localization set. Some applications of these results to regular maps on surfaces are given.
