Signature invariants of odd dimensional links from irregular covers and non-abelian covers of complements are obtained by using the technique of Casson and Gordon. We show that the invariants vanish for slice links and can be considered as invariants under Fm-link concordance. We illustrate examples of links that are not slice but behave as slice links for any invariants from abelian covers.

We show that, in search of link invariants more discriminating than Milnor's [Formula: see text]-invariants, one is naturally led to consider seemingly pathological objects such as links with an infinite number of components and the join of an infinite number of circles (Hawaiian earrings space). We define an infinite homology boundary link, and show that any finite sublink of an infinite homology boundary link has vanishing Milnor's invariants. Moreover, all links known to have vanishing Milnor's invariants are finite sublinks of infinite homology boundary links. We show that the exterior of an infinite homology boundary link admits a map to the Hawaiian earrings space, and that this may be employed to get a factorization of K. E. Orr's omega-invariant through a rather simple space.
