Abstract: We consider the pull-back of a natural sequence of cohomology classes Thetag,ninH2(2g2+n)(overlinecalMg,n) to the moduli space of stable maps calMng(mathbbP1,d). These classes are related to the Br'ezin-Gross-Witten tau function of the KdV hierarchy via ZBGW(hbar,t0,t1,...)=expsumfrachbar2g2n!intoverlinecalMg,nThetag,ncdotprodj=1npsijkjprodtkj. Insertions of the pull-backs of the classes Thetag,n into the integrals defining Gromov-Witten invariants define new invariants which we show in the case of target mathbbP1 are given by a random matrix integral and satisfy the Toda equation.
