✦ Synopsis

We show that the method of Wu [J. Geom. Phys. 12 (1993) 2051 to study topological 4D-gravity can be understood within a standard method now designed to produce equivariant cohomology classes. Next, this general framework is applied to produce some observables of the topological 4Dgravity.

We show the equivalence of tow-dimensional quantum gravity interacting with a total number of scalar and Dirac-fermion degrees of freedom less of 26 and quantum Liouville lield theory. An analysis of the two-dimensional effective geometry, as well as of the conditions of non-triviality of the result
