摘要
We construct rigorously an infinite dimensional distribution which corresponds to the Chern-Simons (CS) functional integral associated with a principal fiber bundle over R-3 with structure group a compact connected Lie group. We determine the 'moments' of the CS distribution and show that these coincide with those used in informal studies of the CS integral. A locality property of the CS distribution is proven. The complesified theory of Frohlich and King is also discussed within our framework.
