It is proposed to study various aspects of the theory of                   relativistic strings, which have the ultimate objective of a                    unified quantum theory of gravity and the other fundamental                     interactions.  (1) Classical and quantum two dimensional world-                 sheet supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models will be used to study               the low energy behavior of bosonic fields in string theories.                   (2) The superspace formulation of spacetime supersymmetry will be               used to construct manifestly supersymmetric effective actions,                  allowing results of sigma model calculations to be extended to                  include fermions.  (3) The BRST formalism for the covariant                     description of relativistic quantum field theories will be                      studied further.
