The authors describe all birational transformations of the real projective plane which are diffeomorphisms. They show that the degree of any such diffeomorphism is congruent to 1 mod 4. They also prove that any birational diffeomorphism of the real projective plane can be decomposed into projective transformations and transformations of degree 5 centered at 3 pairs of conjugated imaginary points.
