Abstract

A causal Poisson bracket algebra for Liouville exponentials on a cylinder is derived using an exchange algebra for free fields describing the in and out asymptotics. The causal algebra involves an even number of space-time points with a minimum of four. A quantum realisation of the algebra is obtained which preserves causality and the local form of non-equal time brackets.
