Abstract

We study three dimensional N=2\mathcal{N}=2 supersymmetric Chern-Simons-Matter theories on the direct product of a circle and a two dimensional hemisphere (S1×D2S^1 \times D^2) with specified boundary conditions by the method of localization. We construct boundary interactions to cancel the supersymmetric variation of the three dimensional superpotential term and the Chern-Simons term and show inflows of the bulk-boundary anomalies. It finds that the boundary conditions induce two dimensional N=(0,2)\mathcal{N}=(0,2) type supersymmetry on the boundary torus. We also study the relation between the 3d-2d coupled partition function of our model and three dimensional holomorphic blocks.
