A simple remark on three dimensional gauge theories

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

Classical three dimensional Yang-Mills is seen to be related to the topological Chern-Simons term through a nonlinear but fully local and covariant gauge field redefinition. A classical recursive cohomological argument is provided.
