Level/rank Duality and Chern-Simons-Matter Theories [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2016 We discuss in detail level/rank duality in three-dimensional Chern-Simons theories and various related dualities in three-dimensional Chern-Simons-matter theories.

The Thermal Free Energy in Large N Chern-Simons-Matter Theories
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2013 We compute the thermal free energy in large N U(N) Chern-Simons-matter theories with matter fields (scalars and/or fermions) in the fundamental representation, in the large temperature limit.

Flows, fixed points and duality in Chern-Simons-matter theories
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 It has been conjectured that 3d fermions minimally coupled to Chern-Simons gauge fields are dual to 3d critical scalars, also minimally coupled to Chern-Simons gauge fields.

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 ...

Superconformal index for N=3 ADEˆ Chern-Simons quiver gauge theories
Nuclear Physics B, 2022 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.

Vector dominance, one flavored baryons, and QCD domain walls from the "hidden" Wess-Zumino term
SciPost Physics, 2021 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.

One-Dimensional Chern-Simons Theory [PDF]
Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2011 We study a one-dimensional toy version of the Chern-Simons theory. We construct its simplicial version which comprises features of a low-energy effective gauge theory and of a topological quantum field theory in the sense of Atiyah.

The Hilbert space of large N Chern-Simons matter theories
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 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
