Monodromy of Cyclic Coverings of the Projective Line

Abstract

We show that the image of the pure braid group under the monodromy action on the homology of a cyclic covering of degree d of the projective line is an arithmetic group provided the number of branch points is sufficiently large compared to the degree.
