We give a general formula for gauge states at the discrete momenta in Liouville theory. These discrete gauge states carry the $w_\infty$ charges. As in the case of the 26D (or 10D) string theory, they are decoupled from the correlation…
A new formulation of $c\leq 1$ matter coupled to 2D gravity is proposed. This model, being closely analogous to one in the Polyakov light-cone gauge, possesses well defined global properties which allow to calculate correlation functions.…
