Abstract

AbstractLet ϕ: X → M be a morphism from a smooth irreducible complex quasi-projective variety X to a Grassmannian variety M such that the image is of dimension ≥ 2. Let D be a reduced hypersurface in M, and γ a general linear automorphism of M. We show that, under a certain differentialgeometric condition on ϕ(X) and D, the fundamental group π1((γ ○ ϕ)−1 (M \ D)) is isomorphic to a central extension of π1(M \ D) × π1(X) by the cokernel of π2(ϕ) : π2(X) → π2(M).
