M.A.L.Capri, V.E.R.Lemes

TL;DR
This paper introduces a BRST invariant mass term for Chern-Simons theory and demonstrates that its renormalization properties align with topologically massive Yang-Mills rather than pure Chern-Simons.
Contribution
The authors develop a BRST invariant mass term for Chern-Simons theory and analyze its renormalization, revealing new insights into its quantum behavior.
Findings
Mass term is introduced in a BRST invariant manner.
Renormalization of massive Chern-Simons matches topologically massive Yang-Mills.
Different from pure Chern-Simons in renormalization properties.
Abstract
A perturbative analysis of a massive Chern-Simons is presented. The mass term is introduced in a BRST invariant way. With these method we prove that the number of independent renormalisation of massive Chern-Simons is equal to topologically massive Yang-Mills and different from pure Chern-Simons.
