Abstract

The first group of differentiable cohomology of \Diff(S1)\Diff(S^1), vanishing on the M\"obius subgroup PSL(2,R)\Diff(S1)PSL(2,R)\subset\Diff(S^1), with coefficients in modules of linear differential operators on S1S^1 is calculated. We introduce three non-trivial PSL(2,R)PSL(2,R)-invariant 1-cocycles on \Diff(S1)\Diff(S^1) generalizing the Schwarzian derivative.
