Abstract
We show the factorization of correlation functions of tachyon operators in 2D string theory using the discretized approach of Moore. Our demonstration of the factorization is more general than that of the paper of Sakai and Tanii. We obtain the rules for the factorization of tachyon amplitudes. Our results can be understood in terms of the operator product expansion of tachyon operators. We also give a systematic way of computing correlation functions of tachyon operators and succeed in summarizing the results of the computation in compact form for some simple cases. We confirm that these tachyon amplitudes indeed satisfy our factorization rule.
