Abstract

The ground ring structure of (1 + 1)-dimensional string theory leads to an infinite set of non-linear recursion relations among the “bulk” scattering amplitudes of open and closed tachyons on the disk, which fix them uniquely. The relations are generated by the action of the ring on the tachyon modules; associativity of this action determines all structure constants. This algebraic structure may allow one to relate the continuum picture to a matrix model.
