Two-Dimensional String Theory, Topological Field Theories and the Deformed Matrix Model

Abstract

In this paper the $c=1$ string theory is studied from the point of view of topological field theories. Calculations are done for arbitrary genus. A change in the prescription is proposed, which reproduces the results of the $1/x^2$ deformed matrix model. It is proposed that the deformed matrix model is related to a D-series Landau-Ginzburg superpotential.
