Chern-Simons Perturbation Theory

, 1991
We study the perturbation theory for three dimensional Chern--Simons quantum field theory on a general compact three manifold without boundary. We show that after a simple change of variables, the action obtained by BRS gauge fixing in the Lorentz gauge has a superspace formulation.

Chern-Simons invariants in KK-theory [PDF]

Journal of Functional Analysis, 2019
For a unitary representation of the fundamental group of a compact smooth manifold, Atiyah, Patodi, Singer defined the so called alpha-invariant of the representation using Chern-Simons invariants. In this article using traces on C*-algebras, we define intrinsically(i.e without using Chern character) an element in KK-theory with real coefficients ...

Chern-Simons theory, decomposition, and the A model

Journal of High Energy Physics
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 ...

Quantum Chern-Simons theory

Physics Letters B, 1989
Abstract We discuss the quantization of Chern-Simons gauge theory in (2+1) dimensions and its relationship with conformal field theory and modular geometry in (1+1) dimensions.
