| dc.description | We propose a technique called dimensional descent to show that Wigner's little group for massless particles, which acts as a generator of gauge transformation for usual Maxwell theory, has an identical role even for topologically massive gauge theories. The examples of $B\wedge F$ theory and Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory are analyzed in details. | |
