Abstract
We study the Toda field theory with finite Lie algebras using an
extension of the Goulian-Li
technique. In this way, we show that, after integrating over the zero mode in the
correlation functions of the exponential fields,
the resulting correlation function resembles that of a free theory.
Furthermore, it
is shown that for some ratios of the charges of the exponential fields
the four-point correlation functions which contain a
degenerate field satisfy the Riemann ordinary differential
equation. Using this fact and the crossing symmetry, we derive a set
of functional equations for the structure constants of the A2 Toda
field theory.
