Summary: Two-dimensional induced gravity as the theory of quantum gravity.Exploit the exact solvability of two-dim. gravity to obtaininformation about the structure of residual symmetries inlight-cone gauge and comparison to conformal gauge results.Understanding of gravitational dressing of various conformaloperators. Descrption of the string as a geodesic field in thesence of an alternative description of the string theory.Extension of the description to the higher dimensional objectssuch as membranes. Gravitational anomalies as sources ofgravitational dinamics in two dimensions.

Keywords: Two-dimensional induced gravity, Membranes, String theory, gravitational anomalies

Research goals: Understanding of light-cone gauge structure of the induced gravity model. Possible avoidance of the region of complex values of the renormalized Kac-Moody central charge for chiral gravity. Compatibility of the supersymmetry projection from higher to lower N and the light-cone gauge condition. Description of string theory as a gauge field theory. Unique description of the gravitational anomalies in terms of regularization dependent parameters.
