Abstract: There have been several constructions of family of varieties with exceptional monodromy group. In most cases, these constructions give Hodge structures with high weight(Hodge numbers spread out). N. Katz was the first to obtain Hodge structures with low weight(Hodge numbers equal to (2,3,2)) and geometric monodromy group G2. I this talk I will give an alternate description of Katz's result using Hodge theory.
