Abstract

We continue the study of (q,p)(q,p) Minimal Liouville Gravity with the help of Douglas string equation. We generalize the results of \cite{Moore:1991ir}, \cite{Belavin:2008kv}, where Lee-Yang series (2,2s+1)(2,2s+1) was studied, to (3,3s+p0)(3,3s+p_0) Minimal Liouville Gravity, where p0=1,2p_0=1,2. We demonstrate that there exist such coordinates τm,n\tau_{m,n} on the space of the perturbed Minimal Liouville Gravity theories, in which the partition function of the theory is determined by the Douglas string equation. The coordinates τm,n\tau_{m,n} are related in a non-linear fashion to the natural coupling constants λm,n\lambda_{m,n} of the perturbations of Minimal Lioville Gravity by the physical operators Om,nO_{m,n}. We find this relation from the requirement that the correlation numbers in Minimal Liouville Gravity must satisfy the conformal and fusion selection rules. After fixing this relation we compute three- and four-point correlation numbers when they are not zero. The results are in agreement with the direct calculations in Minimal Liouville Gravity available in the literature \cite{Goulian:1990qr}, \cite{Zamolodchikov:2005sj}, \cite{Belavin:2006ex}.
