Abstract

In this letter, recent work relating the various anomalies encountered in the different quantisation approaches, is extended to the superstring. The reparametrization and supersymmetry anomalies of the canonical approach are constructed from the super-Weyl anomaly of the path-integral approach via the descent equations. We also give an exact correspondence between this procedure and operations in canonical field theory.
