Abstract: (Elsevier)
We consider the quantization of non-affine Toda field theories in the light-cone and lattice formalisms. The vertex operators are constructed and their braiding is found to be a consequence of the fundamental commutation relations satisfied by the monodromy matrix. For certain values of the coupling, which correspond to the minimal models, the truncation of the operator algebra is closely tied to the quantum group structure.
