The infinite matrices in Witten's vertex are easy to diagonalize. It just requires some SL(2,R) lore plus a Watson-Sommerfeld transformation. We calculate the eigenvalues of all Neumann matrices for all scale dimensions s, both for matter and ghosts, including fractional s which we use to regulate the difficult s=0 limit. We find that s=1 eigenfunctions just acquire a p term, and x gets replaced by the midpoint position.
