Projectively Invariant Cocycles of Holomorphic Vector Fields on an Open Riemann Surface

Abstract

Let $\Sigma$ be an open Riemann surface and $Hol (\Sigma)$ be the Lie algebra of holomorphic vector fields on $\Sigma.$ We fix a projective structure (i.e. a local $SL_2(C)-$structure) on $\Sigma.$ We calculate the first group of cohomology of $Hol(\Sigma)$ with coefficients in the space of linear holomorphic operators acting on tensor densities, vanishing on the Lie algebra $SL_2 (C).$ The result is independant on the choice of the projective structure. We give explicit formulae of 1-cocycles generating this cohomology group.
