Abstract

We consider real projective connections on Riemann surfaces and their corresponding solutions of the Liouville equation. We show that these solutions have singularities of a special type (a black-hole type) on a finite number of simple analytic contours. We analyze the case of the Riemann sphere with four real punctures, considered in V. I. Smirnov’s thesis (Petrograd, 1918) in detail.
