摘要：

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