Wound and Rotating Strings in AdS_5 x S^5
  By using the non-diagonal uniform gauge for the Nambu-Goto string action we derive a gauge-fixed Hamiltonian of a square-root form for the closed string in AdS_5 x S^5 which is wound and rotating in an angular direction in S^5. From the Nambu-Goto string action using a non-diagonal gauge we construct a solution describing a wound string which rotates in the same angular direction as the winding direction. The relation between energy and angular momentum of the string solution is characterized by the winding number and the bending number, and becomes linear in the large angular momentum limit. The small angular momentum limit is compared with the strong coupling limit of the gauge-fixed Hamiltonian. We analyze a wound string solution which is rotating in the different angular direction from the winding direction.
