abstract
We greatly simplify the light-cone gauge description of a relativistic membrane moving in Minkowski space by performing a field-dependent change of variables which allows the explicit solution of all constraints and a Hamiltonian reduction to a $SO(1,3)$ invariant $2+1$-dimensional theory of isentropic gas dynamics, where the pressure is inversely proportional to (minus) the mass-density. Simple expressions for the generators of the Poincar\'e group are given. We also find a generalized Lax pair which involves as a novel feature complex conjugation. The extension to the supersymmetric case, as well as to higher-dimensional minimal surfaces of codimension one is briefly mentioned.

An Alternative Approach to the Exact Solution of FRW-Type Spacetime with a Generalized Chaplygin Gas
The claimed exact solution for a generalized Chaplygin gas universe is invalid because it only satisfies the starting equation when the matter constant equals the dark-energy constant, a condition the paper's own fits...
