Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory as higher Chern-Simons theory
We observe that the string field theory actions for the topological sigma models describe higher or categorified Chern-Simons theories. These theories yield dynamical equations for connective structures on higher principal bundles.

Instanton Counting and Chern-Simons Theory [PDF]
The instanton partition function of N = 2, D = 4 SU(2) gauge theory is obtained by taking the field theory limit of the topological open string partition function, given by a Chern-Simons theory, of a CY3-fold.

Geometric Relational Framework for General‐Relativistic Gauge Field Theories
Abstract It is recalled how relationality arises as the core insight of general‐relativistic gauge field theories from the articulation of the generalized hole and point‐coincidence arguments. Hence, a compelling case for a manifestly relational framework ensues naturally.

Combinatorial quantization of the Hamiltonian Chern-Simons theory I [PDF]
Motivated by a recent paper of Fock and Rosly [6] we describe a mathematically precise quantization of the Hamiltonian Chern-Simons theory. We introduce the Chern-Simons theory on the lattice which is expected to reproduce the results of the continuous ...

Curves on Brill–Noether special K3 surfaces
Abstract Mukai showed that projective models of Brill–Noether general polarized K3 surfaces of genus 6–10 and 12 are obtained as linear sections of projective homogeneous varieties, and that their hyperplane sections are Brill–Noether general curves.

Strong Kähler with torsion solvable lie algebras with codimension 2 nilradical
Abstract In this paper, we study strong Kähler with torsion (SKT) and generalized Kähler structures on solvable Lie algebras with (not necessarily abelian) codimension 2 nilradical. We treat separately the case of J$J$‐invariant nilradical and non‐J$J$‐invariant nilradical. A classification of such SKT Lie algebras in dimension 6 is provided.

Introduction to Chern-Simons Theory
The 2 + 1 Yang-Mills theory allows for an interaction term called the Chern-Simons term. This topological term plays a useful role in understanding the field theoretic description of the excitation of the quantum hall system such as Anyons.

Holographic Duals of Symmetry Broken Phases
Abstract A novel interpretation of Symmetry Topological Field Theories (SymTFTs) as theories of gravity is explored by proposing a holographic duality where the bulk SymTFT (with the gauging of a suitable Lagrangian algebra) is dual to the universal effective field theory (EFT) that describes spontaneous symmetry breaking on the boundary.

Chern-Simons theory, decomposition, and the A model
In this paper, we discuss how gauging one-form symmetries in Chern-Simons theories is implemented in an A-twisted topological open string theory. For example, the contribution from a fixed H/Z bundle on a three-manifold M, arising in a BZ gauging of H ...

Topological holography: The example of the D2-D4 brane system
We propose a toy model for holographic duality. The model is constructed by embedding a stack of $N$ D2-branes and $K$ D4-branes (with one dimensional intersection) in a 6D topological string theory. The world-volume theory on the D2-branes (resp.
