Abstract
Topological BF theories are analysed by considering a test massive par ticle subject to the field on an external given background. The equati ons of motion are solved completely. It is shown that the topological selection of trajectories is implemented by a topological equation who se set of solutions is related to the intersection invariant theory of p and 1-chains on a (p + 1 )-dimensional manifold.
