Abstract

We demonstrate explicitly the correspondence between all protected operators in a 2+1 dimensional non-supersymmetric bosonization duality in the non-relativistic limit. Roughly speaking we consider SU(N)SU(N) Chern-Simons field theory at level kk with NfN_f flavours of fundamental boson, and match its chiral sector to that of a SU(k)SU(k) theory at level NN with NfN_f fundamental fermions. We present the matching at the level of indices and individual operators, seeing the mechanism of failure for Nf>NN_f > N, and point out that the non-relativistic setting is a particularly friendly setting for studying interesting questions about such dualities.
