We discuss in detail how string-inspired lineal gravity can be formulated as a gauge theory based on the centrally extended Poincar\'e group in $(1+1)$ dimensions. Matter couplings are constructed in a gauge invariant fashion, both for point particles and Fermi fields. A covariant tensor notation is developed in which gauge invariance of the formalism is manifest.

Universal $T$-matrices for quantum Poincar\'e groups: contractions and quantum reference frames
A new quantum deformation of the centrally extended Poincaré algebra is introduced whose universal T-matrix contracts to the Galilei T-matrix for quantum reference frames and appears as a central extension of the spac...
