Abstract
Let be an -dimensional irreducible smooth complex projective variety embedded in a projective space. Let be a closed subscheme of , and be a positive integer such that is generated by global sections. Fix an integer , and assume the general divisor is smooth. Denote by the quotient of by the cohomology of and also by the cycle classes of the irreducible components of dimension of . In the present paper we prove that the monodromy representation on for the family of smooth divisors is irreducible.
