چکیده

It is argued that gravitational descendants in the theory of topological gravity coupled to topological Landau-Ginzburg theory can be constructed from matter fields alone (without metric fields and ghosts).In this sense topological gravity is ”induced”. We discuss the mechanism of this effect(that turns out to be connected with K.Saito’s higher residue pairing: K(σi(Φ1),Φ2) = K(Φ1,Φ2) , and demonstrate how it works in a simplest nontrivial example: correlator on a sphere with four marked points . We also discuss some results on k-point correlators on a sphere. From the idea of ”induced” topological gravity it follows that the theory of ”pure” topological gravity (without topological matter) is equivalent to the ”trivial” Landau-Ginzburg theory (with quadratic superpotential).

Topological Matter in Two Dimensions

Topological quantum field theories containing matter fields are constructed by twisting N = 2 supersymmetric quantum field theories. It is shown that N = 2 chiral (antichiral) multiplets lead to topological sigma models while N = 2 twisted chiral (twisted antichiral) multiplets lead to Landau-Ginzburg type topological quantum field theories. In addition, topological gravity in two dimensions is...

We study flows on the space of topological Landau-Ginzburg theories coupled to topological gravity. We argue that flows corresponding to gravitational descendants change the target space from a complex plane to a punctured complex plane and lead to the motion of punctures.It is shown that the evolution of the topolog-ical theory due to these flows is given by dispersionless limit of KP hierarch...

On the Landau-Ginzburg Realization of Topological Gravities

We study the equivariant cohomology of a class of multi-field topological Landau-Ginzburg models, and find that such systems carry intrinsic information about W -gravity. As a result, we can construct the gravitational chiral ring in terms of LG polynomials. We find, in particular, that the spectrum of such theories seems to be richer than so far expected. We also briefly discuss the BRST opera...

Topological Strings in d < 1

We calculate correlation functions in minimal topological field theories. These twisted version of N = 2 minimal models have recently been proposed to describe d < 1 matrix models, once coupled to topological gravity. In our calculation we make use of the Landau-Ginzburg formulation of the N = 2 models, and we find a direct relation between the Landau-Ginzburg superpotential and the KdV differe...

Topological LG Models Coupled to Gravity and Mirror Symmetry

In this paper, we will describe the mathematical foundation of topological Landau–Ginzburg (LG) models coupled to gravity at genus 0 in terms of primitive forms. In particular, we can give a natural explanation for the large phase space. We also discuss the mirror symmetry for Calabi–Yau manifolds and CP1 in our context. We see that the mirror partner of CP1 is the theory of primitive form asso...
