The gauged SL(2, R)/U(1) Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) model is classically an integrable conformal field theory. A second-order differential equation of the Gelfand-Dikii type defines the Poisson bracket structure of the theory. For periodic boundary conditions zero modes imply non-local Poisson brackets which, nevertheless, can be represented by canonical free fields.
