TheC*-algebra of bosonic strings

We give a rigorous definition of Witten'sC^*-string-algebra. To this end we present a new construction ofC^*-algebras associated to special geometric situations (Kähler foliations) and generalize this later construction to the string case. Through this we get a natural geometrical interpretation of the string of semi-infinite forms as well as the fermionic algebra structure. Using the (non-commutative) geometric concepts for investigating the string algebra we get a natural Fredholm module representation of dimension 26+.Work partially supported by the DFG (under contract MU 75712.3)
