CHERN–SIMONS-MATTER THEORY [PDF]
In this paper, we will deform an ABJ theory in [Formula: see text] harmonic superspace without breaking any supersymmetry. We will analyze the ABJ theory and show that it retains the full [Formula: see text] supersymmetry. We will then analyze the gauge fixing and ghost terms for this model in various gauges.

Is quantum gravity a Chern-Simons theory? [PDF]
We propose a model of quantum gravity in arbitrary dimensions defined in terms of the BV quantization of a supersymmetric, infinite dimensional matrix model. This gives an (AKSZ-type) Chern-Simons theory with gauge algebra the space of observables of a quantum mechanical Hilbert space H.

Embedding three-dimensional bosonization dualities into string theory
We give simple string theory embeddings of several recently introduced dualities between 2+1-dimensional Chern-Simons matter theories using probe brane holography.

Chern-Simons-Trinion theories: One-form symmetries and superconformal indices
We study 3d theories containing N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 3 Chern-Simons vector multiplets coupled to the SU(N)3 flavour symmetry of 3d T N theories with Chern-Simons levels k 1, k 2 and k 3.

Remarks on Chern-Simons theory [PDF]
In the late 1980s Witten used the Chern-Simons form of a connection to construct new invariants of 3-manifolds and knots, recovering in particular the Jones invariants. Since then the associated topological quantum field theory (TQFT) has served as a key example in understanding the structure of TQFTs in general. We survey some of that structure with a

On Superpotentials and Charge Algebras of Gauge Theories [PDF]
We propose a new "Hamiltonian inspired" covariant formula to define (without harmful ambiguities) the superpotential and the physical charges associated to a gauge symmetry.

Notes on Superconformal Chern-Simons-Matter Theories [PDF]
The three dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Chern-Simons theory coupled to matter fields, possibly deformed by a superpotential, give rise to a large class of exactly conformal theories with Lagrangian descriptions.

Localization and duality for ABJM latitude Wilson loops
We investigate several aspects of BPS latitude Wilson loops in gauge theories in three dimensions with N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ ≥ 4 supersymmetry. We derive a matrix model for the bosonic latitude Wilson loop in ABJM using supersymmetric localization, and ...

Some Comments on the Spin of the Chern - Simons Vortices [PDF]
We compute the spin of both the topological and nontopological solitons of the Chern - Simons - Higgs model by using our approach based on constrained analysis.
