Symmetries of abelian Chern-Simons theories and arithmetic [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 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.

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

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.

Exact results for Wilson loops in superconformal Chern-Simons theories with matter [PDF]
, 2009 We use localization techniques to compute the expectation values of supersymmetric Wilson loops in Chern-Simons theories with matter. We find the path-integral reduces to a non-Gaussian matrix model. The Wilson loops we consider preserve a single complex

QCD domain walls, Chern-Simons theories and holography [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 A bstractMassive QCD at θ = π breaks CP spontaneously and admits domain walls whose dynamics and phases depend on the number of flavors and their masses. We discuss these issues within the Witten-Sakai-Sugimoto model of holographic QCD.

Edge theory approach to topological entanglement entropy, mutual information and entanglement negativity in Chern-Simons theories [PDF]
, 2016 We develop an approach based on edge theories to calculate the entanglement entropy and related quantities in (2+1)-dimensional topologically ordered phases.

Spectrum universality properties of holographic Chern-Simons theories [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We give a master formula for the spin-2 spectrum of a class of three-dimensional Chern-Simons theories at large N , with flavour group containing SU(3), that arise as infrared fixed points of the D2-brane worldvolume field theory and have AdS4 duals in ...

Superconformal Chern-Simons Theories and AdS(4)/CFT(3) Correspondence [PDF]
, 2008 We discuss the N = 2 superspace formulation of the N = 8 superconformal Bagger-Lambert-Gustavsson theory, and of the N = 6 superconformal Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena U(N) x U(N) Chern-Simons theory. In particular, we prove the full SU(4)R-symmetry
