Projective Equivalence of Smooth Hypersurfaces via Cyclic Covers

In this paper, we prove that for any smooth hypersurface $Y$ of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}_k$, the cyclic $d$-fold cover $\widetilde{Y} \to \mathbb{P}^{n+1}_k$ branched along $Y$ completely characterizes $Y$ up to projective equivalence. This solves a question asked by Huybrechts in [Huy23, \S 1.5.6].
