Abstract: A covariant functor from the category of generic complex algebraic curves to a category of the $ AF$-algebras is constructed. The construction is based on a representation of the Teichmüller space of a curve by the measured foliations due to Douady, Hubbard, Masur and Thurston. The functor maps isomorphic algebraic curves to the stably isomorphic $ AF$-algebras.
