Abstract
The authors explicitly construct the vacua of the bosonic and fermionic string and corresponding ghost systems as holomorphic vector bundles over Diff(S1)/S1. They give a simple method for calculating curvatures of these bundles. Possible application to string field theory is briefly discussed.Keywords
