Abstract
The BRS quantization of the closed bosonic string in d compact and (D - d) non-compact dimensions is shown to require D = 26 and to restrict the form of allowed compactifications. Suitable canonical transformations in the phase-space path integral generate the Ward identities of E8 (d = 8) and of E8 × E8 or Spin(32)/Z2(d = 16).
