Description
We analyze the general solution of the Liouville equation on periodic two-dimensional space-time in terms of a set of harmonic oscillators and a ''center-of-mass motion.'' The energy takes a simple form in terms of the associated constants of motion. The obvious Poisson brackets among these latter lead to the correct canonical structure and quantization is discussed
