On the topological Ward identity of the three-dimensional topologically massive gauge theory
Description
It is pointed out that the topological Ward identity of the three-dimensional topologically massive non-Abelian gauge theory receives contributions from the Chern-Simons term only. The kinetic term, i.e. the curvature squared term does not contribute at zero momentum. The physical implication of this observation is discussed
