We report a comprehensive statistical analysis of the observational data ofthe cosmic evolution of supernova (SN) rate density, to derive constraints oncosmic star formation history and the nature of type Ia supernova (SN Ia)progenitor. We use all available information of magnitude, SN type, andredshift information of both type Ia and core-collapse (CC) SNe in GOODS andSDF, as well as SN Ia rate densities reported in the literature. Furthermore,we also add 157 SN candidates in the past Subaru/Suprime-Cam data that arenewly reported here, to increase the statistics. We find that the current dataset of SN rate density evolution already gives a meaningful constraint on theevolution of the cosmic star formation rate (SFR) at z <~ 1, though strongconstraints cannot be derived for the delay time distribution (DTD) of SNe Ia.We derive a constraint of the evolutionary index of SFR density alpha ~ 3--4[(1+z)^alpha at z <~ 1] with an evidence for a significant evolution of meanextinction of CC SNe [E(B-V) ~ 0.5 at z ~ 0.5 compared with ~ 0.2 at z = 0],which does not change significantly within a reasonable range of various DTDmodels. This result is nicely consistent with the systematic trend of alphaestimates based on galactic SFR indicators in different wavelengths(ultraviolet, H_alpha, and infrared), indicating that there is a strongevolution in mean extinction of star forming regions in galaxies at relativelylow redshift range of z <~ 0.5. These results are obtained by a method that iscompletely independent of galaxy surveys, and especially, there is no detectionlimit about the host galaxy luminosity in our analysis, giving a strongconstraint on the star formation activity in high-z dwarf galaxies orintergalactic space.
