This paper includes a self-contained account of the relation between the soliton theory (KP hierarchy), Grassmann manifolds and conformal field theory on Riemann surfaces. The geometry of the (dressed) moduli space of Riemann surfaces and its embedding to the universal Grassmann manifold are described in algebro-geometrical way. The theory of KP hierarchy, including the bosonization formalism, is completely reviewed. The vacuum state are given as the \(\tau\)-function for the compact solution (essentially Riemann's theta function). The correlation functions and the Ward identities are described. As the main result of this paper, it is proved that the Ward identities and some automorphy properties uniquely characterize the \(\tau\)-function.
