Quantum Liouville Theory from a Diffeomorphism Chern-Simons Action

preprint1995arXivOpen access

Abstract

A Chern-Simons action written with Christoffel Symbols has a natural gauge symmetry of diffeomorphisms. This Chern-Simons action will induce a Wess-Zumio-Witten model on the boundary of the manifold. If we restrict the diffeomorphisms to chiral diffeomorphism, the Wess-Zumio-Witten model is equivalent to a quantum Liouville action.
