The cancellation of world-sheet anomalies in the D = 10 Green-Schwarz heterotic string sigma model☆

/ Authors

/ Abstract

We determine the two-dimensional Weyl, Lorentz and κ-anomalies in the D = 10 Green-Schwarz heterotic string sigma model, in an SO(1, 9) Lorentz-covariant background gauge, and prove their cancellation.
