Abstract
We derive the conditions that must be satisfied by three string vertex operators, in order to have a gauge invariant Chern-Simons type action as proposed by Witten for the open bosonic string, in a Fock space formulation. Given a vertex which satisfies these conditions for the open string, we show how to construct an invariant action for the closed string.
