Milnor invariants of covering links

We consider Milnor invariants for certain covering links as a generalization of covering linkage invariants formulated by R. Hartely and K. Murasugi. A set of Milnor invariants for covering links is a cobordism invariant for a link, and that this invariant can distinguish some links for which the ordinary Milnor invariants coincide. Moreover, for a Brunnian link L, the first non-vanishing Milnor invariants of L is modulo-2 congruent to a sum of Milnor invariants of covering links.
