Integrability in gravity from Chern-Simons theory
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.

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

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

Three-dimensional de Sitter horizon thermodynamics
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 ...

Superconformal index for N=3 ADEˆ Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories
We compute superconformal indices for N=3 ADEˆ Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories with a product gauge group ∏iU(N)i, using the method of supersymmetric localization. We also perform a large N analysis of the index.

The Hilbert space of large N Chern-Simons matter theories
We demonstrate that the known expressions for the thermal partition function of large N Chern-Simons matter theories admit a simple Hilbert space interpretation as the partition function of an associated ungauged large N matter theory with one additional

Vector dominance, one flavored baryons, and QCD domain walls from the "hidden" Wess-Zumino term
We further explore a recent proposal that the vector mesons in QCD have a special role as Chern-Simons fields on various QCD objects such as domain walls and the one flavored baryons.

Spectrum universality properties of holographic Chern-Simons theories [PDF]
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 ...

N=5,6 Superconformal Chern-Simons Theories and M2-branes on Orbifolds [PDF]
We explore further our recent generalization of the = 4 superconformal Chern-Simons theories of Gaiotto and Witten. We find and construct explicitly theories of enhanced = 5 or 6 supersymmetry, especially = 5, Sp(2M) ? O(N) and = 6, Sp(2M) ?
