Abstract The S-matrix for each chiral sector of Liouville theory on a cylinder is computed merlot redbud tree for sale from the loop expansion of correlation functions of a one-dimensional field theory on a circle with a non-local kinetic energy and an exponential potential.This action is the Legendre transform of the generating function of semiclassical scattering amplitudes.It is derived from the relation between asymptotic in- and out-fields.Its relevance for the quantum scattering process is demonstrated by comparing explicit loop diagrams computed from this action with other methods of computing the S-matrix, which are here also developed.
