Scientific paper

We study conformal gravity in d=2+1, where the Cotton tensor is equated to
a--necessarily traceless--matter stress tensor, for us that of the improved
scalar field. We first solve this system exactly in the $pp$ wave regime, then
show it to be equivalent to topologically massive gravity.
