The Schwarzian derivative for maps between manifolds with complex projective connections

In this paper we define, in two equivalent ways, the Schwarzian derivative of a map between complex manifolds equipped with complex projective connections. Also, a new, coordinate-free definition of complex projective connections is given. We show how the Schwarzian derivative is related to the projective structure of the manifolds, to projective linear transformations, and to complex geodesics.
