Complex conjugation inducing a trivial map on the fundamental group

Let $V$ be a smooth projective complex variety defined over the reals such that $G=\pi_1(V)$ is a non-abelian finite simple group. Assume that $V$ has a real point. Can the map $G\to G$ induced by ...

Monodromy representations are "quasi-unipotent"

Let $S$ be a smooth complex algebraic variety, let $b$ be a closed point of $X$, and let $f:X\to S$ be a polarized family of smooth projective varieties over $S$. This induces a monodromy ...

algebraic varieties whose fundamental group is subgroup separable wrt subvariety subgroups

Call an algebraic variety $\pi_1$-subgroup separable iff, for every $Y\subseteq X$ a closed subvariety and $\hat Y\xrightarrow{i} Y$ a normalisation of $Y$, and subgroup $\Gamma=Im(\pi_1(\hat Y,y)\...

A simple fundamental group of an hypersurface

Is there an example of analytic hypersurface in $C^n$ such that its fundamental group is simple i.e. does not have normal subgroups except the trivial group and the group itself ? Thank you EDIT : ...
