Parity anomaly in Dirac equation in (1+2) dimensions, quantum   electrodynamics and pair production
  It is shown that parity operator plays an interesting role in Dirac equation in (1+2) dimensions and can be used for defining chiral currents. It is shown that the "anomalous" current induced by an external gauge field can be related to the anomalous divergence of an axial vector current which arises due to quantum radiative corrections provided by triangular loop Feynman diagrams in analogy with the corresponding axial anomaly in (1+3) dimensions. It is shown that the non-conservation of "chiral charge" due to anomaly is related with the topological Chern-Simons charge. As an application pair creation of massless fermions is discussed in electric field.
