BRS invariant gauge fixing of local and global zero modes in superstring theory
Description
We consider the coupling of d scalar superfields to two-dimensional (1, 0) supergravity represented by unconstrained Beltrami superdifferentials. Application of the standard BRS quantization scheme and of Stora's global gauge fixing procedure allows for a complete gauge fixing of the fermionic string action in superspace. The resulting Faddeev-Popov determinant and measure differ in several respects from previously found results. (orig.)
