Supersymmetric localization on dS: sum over topologies
We find the exact quantum gravity partition function on the static patch of 3d de Sitter spacetime. We have worked in the Chern Simons formulation of 3d gravity.

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 ...

Supersymmetry Breaking in Chern-Simons-matter Theories
Some of supersymmetric Chern-Simons theories are known to exhibit supersymmetry breaking when the Chern-Simons level is less than a certain number. The mechanism of the supersymmetry breaking is, however, not clear from the field theory viewpoint.

Arithmetic Chern-Simons Theory II [PDF]
We apply ideas of Dijkgraaf and Witten on three-dimensional topological quantum field theory to arithmetic curves, that is, the spectra of rings of integers in algebraic number fields. In the first three sections, we define classical Chern-Simons actions on spaces of Galois representations.

Radiatively Induced Lorentz and CPT Violation in Electrodynamics [PDF]
In a nonperturbative formulation, radiative corrections arising from Lorentz and CPT violation in the fermion sector induce a definite and nonzero Chern-Simons addition to the electromagnetic action.

Renormalization ambiguities in Chern-Simons theory [PDF]
We introduce a new family of gauge invariant regularizations of Chern-Simons theories which generate one-loop renormalizations of the coupling constant of the form $k\to k+2 s c_v$ where $s$ can take any arbitrary integer value. In the particular case $s=0$ we get an explicit example of a gauge invariant regularization which does not generate radiative

Two-Loop Analysis of Non-abelian Chern-Simons Theory [PDF]
Perturbative renormalization of a non-Abelian Chern-Simons gauge theory is examined. It is demonstrated by explicit calculation that, in the pure Chern-Simons theory, the beta-function for the coefficient of the Chern-Simons term vanishes to three loop ...

Interfaces and the extended Hilbert space of Chern-Simons theory
The low energy effective field theories of (2 + 1) dimensional topological phases of matter provide powerful avenues for investigating entanglement in their ground states.
