Let$M$be a non-compact connected Riemann surface of a finite type, and$R$⋐$M$be a relatively compact domain such that$H$_{1}($M$,$Z$)=$H$_{1}($R$,$Z$). Let $$\tilde R \to R$$ be a covering. We study the algebra$H$^{∞}($U$) of bounded holomorphic functions defined in certain subdomains $$U \subset \tilde R$$ . Our main result is a Forelli type theorem on projections in$H$^{∞}($D$).
