Abstract:
The anomalous c-number term of the Virasoro algebra in the string model is analyzed in terms of the field theory in the two-dimensional Minkowski space-time, which, called the internal space-time, is obtained by transforming the basic variables, τ and σ describing the motion of relativistic strings. It is shown that the anomaly disappears if one allows the dimensionality of the internal space-time to be continuous and goes to the limit of two dimensions.
