By compactifying the Bagger–Lambert–Gustavsson model on ℝ1,1×S1, we obtain a new two-dimensional massless field theory with dynamical fields valued in the Lie three-algebra [Formula: see text] coupled with an SO(1, 1) scalar and vector field which are valued in the set [Formula: see text] of the endomorphisms of the Lie three-algebra. In the limit g BLG →∞ the theory reduces to a supersymmetric Lie three-valued generalization of the Green–Schwarz superstring in the light-cone gauge.

We show that the two-dimensional gravity coupled to c=−2 matter field in Polyakov’s light-cone gauge has a twisted N=2 superconformal algebra. We also show that the BRST cohomology in the light-cone gauge actually coincides with that in the conformal gauge. Based on this observation the relations between the topological algebras are discussed.

We find the relationship between the Jackiw-Teitelboim model of two-dimensional gravity and the SL (2, R) induced gravity. These are shown to be related to a two-dimensional gauge theory obtained by dimensionally reducing the Chern-Simons action of the 2+1 dimensional gravity. We present an explicit solution to the equations of motion of the auxiliary field of the Jackiw-Teitelboim model in the light-cone gauge. A renormalization of the cosmological constant is also given.

Liouville Action

We study the symmetry of two-dimensional gravity by choosing a generic gauge. A local action is derived which reduces to either the Liouville action or the Polyakov one by reducing to the conformal or light-cone gauge respectively. The theory is also solved classically. We show that an SL (2, R) covariant gauge can be chosen so that the two-dimensional gravity has a manifest Virasoro and the sl (2, R)-current symmetry discovered by Polyakov. The symmetry algebra of the light-cone gauge is shown to be isomorphic to the Beltrami algebra. By using the contour integration method we construct the BRST charge QB corresponding to this algebra following the Fradkin-Vilkovisky procedure and prove that the nilpotence of QB requires c=28 and α0=1. We give a simple interpretation of these conditions.

It is shown that the BRS (= Becchi–Rouet–Stora)-formulated two-dimensional BF theory in the light-cone gauge (coupled with chiral Dirac fields) is solved very easily in the Heisenberg picture. The structure of the exact solution is very similar to that of the BRS-formulated two-dimensional quantum gravity in the conformal gauge. In particular, the BRS Noether charge has anomaly. Based on this fact, a criticism is made on the reasoning of Kato and Ogawa, who derived the critical dimension D=26 of string theory on the basis of the anomaly of the BRS Noether charge. By adding the [Formula: see text] term to the BF-theory Lagrangian density, the exact solution to the two-dimensional Yang–Mills theory is also obtained.

Quantization of two-dimensional chiral matter coupled to gravity induces an effective action for the zweibein field which is both Weyl and Lorentz anomalous. Recently, the quantization of this induced action has been analyzed in the light-cone gauge as well as in the conformal gauge. An apparent mismatch between the results obtained in the two gauges is analyzed and resolved by properly treating the Lorentz field as a chiral boson.
