Description

The behavior of finite temperature quantum electrodynamics in two spatial dimensions (QED3) is investigated. It is shown, that due to the presence of the parity breaking Chern-Simons term, the propagating modes of the photon consists of two longielliptic waves with different values for the masses. However, the parity symmetry is restored in the high temperature limit
