Geometry of Scattering at Planckian Energies

We present an alternative derivation and geometrical formulation of Verlinde topological field theory, which may describe scattering at center of mass energies comparable or larger than the Planck energy. A consistent truncation of 3+1 dimensional Einstein action is performed using the standard geometrical objects, like tetrads and spin connections. The resulting topological invariant is given in terms of differential forms. On leave of absence from: Lebedev Physical Institute, Moscow, 117924, USSR
