Abstract
We review the relation between the matrix model and Liouville approach es to two-dimensional gravity as elaborated by Moore, Seiberg and Stau dacher. Then, based on the supersymmetric Liouville formulation and th e discrete eigenvalue model proposed by Alvarez-Gaume, Itoyama, Manes and Zadra, we extend the previous relation to the supersymmetric case. The minisuperspace approximation for the supersymmetric case is formu lated, and the corresponding wave equation is found.
