Hi there,
It is said that the Virasoro algebra/constraint is the most important algebra is string theory.
(i) Why is that?
(ii) How is it related to the world-sheet conformal symmetry?
(iii) How do I see that the Virasoro constraints are the vanishing of the stress tensor, which can be solved classically in the light-cone gauge?
Thanks
