From this we deduce the vanishing of the (beta)-function associated to the Chern-Simons coupling constant and the full finiteness in the case of the Yang-Mills Chern-Simons theory. The main ingredient in the proof of the latter property is the non invariance of the Chern-Simons from under the gauge transformations. Our results hold for the three-dimensional Chern-Simons model in a general Riemannian manifold. (author) 28 refs. 收起
