Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory as higher Chern-Simons theory
We observe that the string field theory actions for the topological sigma models describe higher or categorified Chern-Simons theories. These theories yield dynamical equations for connective structures on higher principal bundles.

Topological Entanglement Entropy in Chern-Simons Theories and Quantum Hall Fluids [PDF]
We compute directly the entanglement entropy of spatial regions in Chern-Simons gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions using surgery. We use these results to determine the universal topological piece of the entanglement entropy for Abelian and non-Abelian ...

Exact instanton expansion of superconformal Chern-Simons theories from topological strings [PDF]
It was known that the ABJM matrix model is dual to the topological string theory on a Calabi-Yau manifold. Using this relation it was possible to write down the exact instanton expansion of the partition function of the ABJM matrix model.

A generalized 4d Chern-Simons theory
A generalization of the 4d Chern-Simons theory action introduced by Costello and Yamazaki is presented. We apply general arguments from symplectic geometry concerning the Hamiltonian action of a symmetry group on the space of gauge connections defined on

Anomalous dimensions at four loops in N=6 superconformal Chern-Simons theories [PDF]
In arXiv:0908.2463 we computed the four-loop correction to a function depending on the 't Hooft coupling(s) that appears in the magnon dispersion relation of the spin chains derived from single trace operators in N = 6 superconformal Chern–Simons ...

The matrix Chern–Simons one-form as a Universal Chern–Simons theory [PDF]
We consider different large ${\cal N}$ limits of the one-dimensional Chern-Simons action $i\int dt~ \Tr (\del_0 +A_0)$ where $A_0$ is an ${\cal N}\times{\cal N}$ antihermitian matrix. The Hilbert space on which $A_0$ acts as a linear transformation is taken as the quantization of a $2k$-dimensional phase space ${\cal M}$ with different gauge field ...

A stringy origin of M2 brane Chern–Simons theories [PDF]
We show that string duality relates M-theory on a local Calabi–Yau fourfold singularity X 4 to type IIA string theory on a Calabi–Yau threefold X 3 fibered over a real line, with RR 2-form fluxes turned on.

A note on noncommutative Chern–Simons theories [PDF]
The three dimensional Chern-Simons theory on $\rr^2_θ\times \rr$ is studied. Considering the gauge transformations under the group elements which are going to one at infinity, we show that under arbitrary (finite) gauge transformations action changes with an integer multiple of $2π$ {\it if}, the level of noncommutaitive Chern-Simons is {\it quantized}.
