Abstract
We quantize the Proca–Chern–Simonssystem via the path-integral approach and diagonalizethe Hamiltonian by canonical transformations. We findthat the mass spectrum of the system is equivalent to asystem of two free scalar fields; the statisticalpartition function, which does not exhibit any exoticproperties, is also evaluated from the diagonalizedHamiltonian.
