It is known that in the 2+1 dimensional quantum electrodynamics with Chern-Simons term, spontaneous magnetic field induces Lorentz symmetry breaking. In this paper, thermodynamical characters, especially the phase structure of this model…
We construct an extension of the standard Kogut-Susskind lattice model for classical 3+1 dimensional Yang-Mills theory, in which ``classical particle'' degrees of freedom are added. We argue that this will correctly reproduce the ``hard…
We propose a $\mathbb{U}(1) \times \mathbb{Z}_2$ effective gauge theory for vortices in a $p_x+ip_y$ superfluid in two dimensions. The combined gauge transformation binds $\mathbb{U}(1)$ and $\mathbb{Z}_2$ defects so that the total…
Topological superconductors are characterized by topological invariants that describe the number and nature of their robust boundary modes. These invariants must also have observable consequences in the bulk of the system, akin to the…
In this work we review various findings in the planar quantum physics with the special emphasis on the two-component quantum electrodynamics in three-dimensional spacetime (QED_{3}) with the Chern-Simons (CS) term. First the classical…
I investigate the effects of the Chern-Simons coupling on high-energy behavior in $2+1$ dimensional U(1) gauged $\eta(\phi^\dagger\phi)^3$ theory with a Chern-Simons term. The effective potential and the $\beta$ function for $\eta$ are…
The criticism of Babaev and Silaev notwithstanding, we conclude that our analysis is correct. We have found in our papers on two-band superconductors close to Tc, where the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory applies, that these materials are…
I investigate the evolution of finite temperature, classical Yang-Mills field equations under the influence of a chemical potential for Chern Simons number $N_{CS}$. The rate of $N_{CS}$ diffusion, $\Gamma_d$, and the linear response of…
We study contact terms of conserved currents and the energy-momentum tensor in three-dimensional quantum field theory. They are associated with Chern-Simons terms for background fields. While the integer parts of these contact terms are…
We extend topologically massive electrodynamics, both by adding a higher derivative action to cast the entire three-term model in Chern-Simons (CS) form, and by embedding it in an AdS background. It can then be written as the sum of two CS…
We show in this paper that Abelian Chern-Simons term is induced in 2+1 and 3+1 dimensional rotating superfluid $^{3}$He-A and plays important roles in its dynamics. Because U(1) symmetry is spontaneously broken in $^{3}$He-A, Goldstone mode…
We study the physics of multiple M5-branes compactified on a hyperbolic 3-manifold. On the one hand, it leads to the 3d-3d correspondence which maps an $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theory to a pure Chern-Simons theory on the…
Two different aspects of high T_c superconductivity is studied in two independent parts of this thesis. In the first part we study Landau's Fermi liquid theory and nearly antiferromagnetic Fermi liquid theory (NAFL) in 2D. We that…
A systematic perturbation theory is developed to describe the magnetic field-induced subdominant $s$- and $d_{xy}$-wave order parameters in the mixed state of a $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superconductor, enabling us to obtain, within weak-coupling…
We reinterpret U(N) Chern-Simons-Witten theory quantized on a torus as a free fermion system. Its Hilbert space and some observables are simply related to those of group quantum mechanics, even at finite N and k. Its large N limit can be…
We discuss several aspects of a generalization of the Chern-Simons action containing the pseudo-differential operator$\sqrt{-\Box}$, which we shall call pseudo Chern-Simons (PCS). Firstly, we derive the PCS from the bosonization of free…
We examine the claim that the effective action of four-dimensional SU(2)_L gauge theory at high and low temperature contains a three-dimensional Chern-Simons term with coefficient being the chemical potential for baryon number. We perform…
We study 2D Maxwell-dilaton gravity with higher order corrections given by the Chern-Simons term. The model admits three distinctive $AdS_2$ vacuum solutions. By making use of the entropy function formalism we find the entropy of the…
We study how the Chern-Simons term effects the dynamically generated fermion mass in $(2+1)D$ Quantum Electrodynamics in the framework of large $N$ expansion. We find that when the Chern-Simons term is present half of the fermions get mass…
We study $U(N)_k$ Chern-Simons theory coupled to fundamental fermions and scalars in a large $N$ `t Hooft limit. We compute the thermal free energy at high temperature, as well as two- and three-point functions of simple gauge-invariant…
