| Jan 11, 2019 at 11:57 | comment | added | Ben McKay | The argument is long, but I am convinced that Molzon and Mortensen are right, and that their two papers on this subject are correct and are also the best written ones. Their other paper you want to look at: Molzon, Mortensen. The Schwarzian derivative for maps between manifolds with complex projective connections. Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 348 (1996), no. 8, 3015–3036. | |
| Jan 11, 2019 at 11:31 | comment | added | Ben McKay | I don't think that Pizarro is right about these "other functions". Gunning, On the uniformization of complex manifolds: the role of connections", p. 50, seems to say that the Schwarzian derivative vanishes precisely for projective transformations. This is made completely clear and explicit in the paper Molzon, Mortensen, Differential operators associated with holomorphic mappings. Ann. Global Anal. Geom. 12 (1994), no. 3, 291–304. | |
