Covariant Quantization of The Super-D-string

We present the covariant BRST quantization of the super-D-string. The non-vanishing supersymmetric U(1) field strength ${\cal F}$ is essential for the covariant quantization of the super-D-string as well as for its static picture. A SO(2) parameter parametrizes a family of local supersymmetric (kappa symmetric) systems including the super-D-string with ${\cal F}\ne 0$ and the Green-Schwarz superstring with ${\cal F}= 0$. We suggest that $E^1$ (canonical conjugate of U(1) gauge field) plays a role of the order parameter in the Green-Schwarz formalism: the super-D-string exists for $E^1 \ne 0$ while the fundamental Green-Schwarz superstring exists only for $E^1 =0$.

Canonical Equivalence between Super D-string and Type IIB Superstring

We show that the super D-string action is canonically equivalent to the type IIB superstring action with a world-sheet gauge field. Canonical transformation to the type IIB theory with dynamical tension is also constructed to establish the SL(2,Z) covariance beyond the semi-classical approximations.

Toda Lattice and Tomimatsu-Sato Solutions

We discuss an analytic proof of a conjecture (Nakamura) that solutions of Toda molecule equation give those of Ernst equation giving Tomimatsu-Sato solutions of Einstein equation. Using Pfaffian identities it is shown for Weyl solutions completely and for generic cases partially.

Mtric from Non-Metric Action of Gravity

The action of general relativity proposed by Capovilla, Jacobson and Dell is written in terms of $SO(3)$ gauge fields and gives Ashtekar's constraints for Einstein gravity. However, it does not depend on the space-time metric nor its signature explicitly. We discuss how the space-time metric is introduced from algebraic relations of the constraints and the Hamiltonian by focusing our attention on the signature factor. The system describes both Euclidian and Lorentzian metrics depending on reality assignments of the gauge connections. That is, Euclidian metrics arise from the real gauge fields. On the other hand, self-duality of the gauge fields, which is well known in the Ashtekar's formalism, is also derived in this theory from consistency condition of Lorentzian metric. We also show that the metric so determined is equivalent to that given by Urbantke, which is usually accepted as a definition of the metric for this system.
