Abstract

The problem of interpreting a set of ${\cal W}$-algebra constraints constructed in terms of an arbitrarily twisted scalar field as the recursion relations of a topological theory is addressed. In this picture, the conventional models of topological gravity coupled to $A$, $D$ or $E$ topological matt...
