Three-Dimensional Gravity and String Ghosts

preprint1991arXivOpen access

Abstract

It is known that much of the structure of string theory can be derived from three-dimensional topological field theory and gravity. We show here that, at least for simple topologies, the string diffeomorphism ghosts can also be explained in terms of three-dimensional physics.
