Abstract
We study the interaction of non-Abelian topological BF theories define d on two-dimensional manifolds with point sources carrying non-Abelian charges. We identify the most general solution for the held equations on simply and multiply connected two-manifolds. Taking the particular choice of the so-called extended Poincare group as the gauge group, w e discuss how recent discussions of two-dimensional gravity models do fit in this formalism.
