Monodromy of general hypersurfaces

Abstract

Let XX be a general complex projective hypersurface in Pn+1\mathbb{P}^{n+1} of degree d>1d>1. A point PP not in XX is called uniform if the monodromy group of the projection of XX from PP is isomorphic to the symmetric group. We prove that all the points in Pn+1\mathbb{P}^{n+1} are uniform for XX, generalizing a result of Cukierman on general plane curves.
