The monodromy groups of Schwarzian equations on closed Riemann surfaces
Abstract
Let θ:π1(R) (2,) be a homomorphism of the fundamental group of an oriented, closed surface R of genus exceeding one. We will establish the following theorem. Theorem. Necessary and sufficient for θ to be the monodromy representation associated with a complex projective stucture on R, either unbranched or with a single branch point of order 2, is that θ(π1(R)) be nonelementary. A branch point is required if and only if the representation θ does not lift to (2,).
