Effective field theories for interacting boundaries of 3D topological crystalline insulators through bosonisation [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2020
Here, we analyse two Dirac fermion species in two spatial dimensions in the presence of general quartic contact interactions. By employing functional bosonisation techniques, we demonstrate that depending on the couplings of the fermion interactions the ...

Charges of monopole operators in ADE ̂ $$ \hat{ADE} $$ Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020
We compute R-charges of the BPS-monopole operators in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 3 ADE ̂ $$ \hat{ADE} $$ Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories, along the lines of the work of Benna, Klebanov and Klose in [1]. These theories have a weakly coupled UV completion in

Integrability in gravity from Chern-Simons theory [PDF]

Journal of High Energy Physics
This paper presents a new perspective on integrability in theories of gravity. We show how the stationary, axisymmetric sector of General Relativity can be described by the boundary dynamics of a four-dimensional Chern-Simons theory.

Chern-Simons invariants from ensemble averages

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We discuss ensemble averages of two-dimensional conformal field theories associated with an arbitrary indefinite lattice with integral quadratic form Q.

Higher Chern-Simons based on (2-)crossed modules

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We present higher Chern-Simons theories based on (2-)crossed modules. We start from the generalized differential forms in Generalized Differential Calculus and define the corresponding generalized connections which consist of higher connections.

Symmetries of abelian Chern-Simons theories and arithmetic

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We determine the unitary and anti-unitary Lagrangian and quantum symmetries of arbitrary abelian Chern-Simons theories. The symmetries depend sensitively on the arithmetic properties (e.g.

Algebraic Chern-Simons theory [PDF]

American Journal of Mathematics, 1997
A theory of secondary characteristic classes analogous to the classical Chern-Simons theory is developed for algebraic vector bundles. Applications are made to questions involving finer charcterisitic classes for bundles with connection and to the Griffiths group of algebraic cycles.

Matroid theory and Chern–Simons [PDF]

Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2000
It is shown that matroid theory may provide a natural mathematical framework for a duality symmetries not only for quantum Yang–Mills physics, but also for M-theory. Our discussion is focused in an action consisting purely of the Chern–Simons term, but in principle the main ideas can be applied beyond such an action. In our treatment the theorem due to

Three-dimensional de Sitter horizon thermodynamics

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We explore thermodynamic contributions to the three-dimensional de Sitter horizon originating from metric and Chern-Simons gauge field fluctuations. In Euclidean signature these are computed by the partition function of gravity coupled to matter semi ...
