Abstract:
In three dimensional Maxwell-Chern-Simons massless scalar electrodynamics with coupling, the symmetry is spontaneously broken at two loop order regardless of the presence or absence of the Maxwell term. Dimensional transmutation takes place in pure Chern-Simons scalar electrodynamics. The beta function for the coupling is independent of gauge couplings.Note:
