A complementary result on a singular mean field equation with a sign-changing potential function

In this note, we study the singular mean field equation defined on a Riemann surface with a sign-changing potential function. We prove if some singular sources happen to be placed on the zero-level curve of the potential function, a priori estimate can still be obtained. As a consequence of this estimate, existence and multiplicity results can still be obtained based on the topology of the manifold.
