The author studies projective structures on 1-dimensional manifolds, and computes the algebras of their differential invariants. A projective structure is defined as a representation of the Lie algebras \(sl_2(\mathbb R)\) in the algebra of vector fields of the 1-dimensional manifold. This allows to connect a Schrödinger type equation with a projective structure (Theorem 5), as well as to give a classification of projective geometric quantities (Theorem 6). These quantities are sections of bundles over the 1-dimensional manifold to which \(sl_2(\mathbb R)\) is lifted. Three classes and 11 types of projective quantities are determined. For all of them the structure of algebras of their differential invariants are determined.
