On Dubrovin Topological Field Theories

Abstract

I show that the new topological field theories recently associated by Dubrovin with each Coxeter group may be all obtained in a simple way by a ``restriction'' of the standard ADE solutions. I then study the Chebichev specializations of these topological algebras, examine how the Coxeter graphs and matrices reappear in the dual algebra and mention the intriguing connection with the operator product algebra of conformal field theories. A direct understanding of the occurrence of Coxeter groups in that context is highly desirable.
