We use the 3d-3d correspondence together with the DGG construction of theories $T_n[M]$ labelled by 3-manifolds M to define a non-perturbative state-integral model for SL(n,C) Chern-Simons theory at any level k, based on ideal…

We present an elementary review of some aspects of Chern-Simons theory with complex gauge group SL(N,C). We discuss some of the challenges in defining the theory as a full-fledged TQFT, as well as some successes inspired by the 3d-3d…

This is the 10th article in the collection of reviews "Exact results on N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories", ed. J.Teschner. It reviews correspondences between three-dimensional gauge theories and complex Chern-Simons theory on suitable…

We use the relation between 2d Yang-Mills and Brownian motion to show that 2d Yang-Mills on the cylinder is related to Chern-Simons theory in a class of lens spaces. Alternatively, this can be regarded as 2dYM computing certain correlators…

We study 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ Chern-Simons (CS) quiver theories on $S^3$ and ${\Sigma}_{\mathfrak{g}}\times S^1$. Using localization results, we examine their partition functions in the large rank limit and requiring the resulting matrix…

We propose an equivalence of the partition functions of two different 3d gauge theories. On one side of the correspondence we consider the partition function of 3d SL(2,R) Chern-Simons theory on a 3-manifold, obtained as a punctured Riemann…

We present a new expression for the partition function of refined Chern-Simons theory on $S^3$ with arbitrary gauge group, which is explicitly equal to $1$, when the coupling constant is zero. Using this form of partition function we show…

We provide a general formula for the partition function of three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theories placed on $S^2 \times S^1$ with a topological twist along $S^2$, which can be interpreted as an index for chiral states of the…

We study the supersymmetric partition function on $S^1 \times L(r, 1)$, or the lens space index of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories and their connection to two-dimensional chiral algebras. We primarily focus on…

We conjecture, and show in a plethora of examples, that the sphere partition function of 3d $\mathcal{N}=4$ Chern-Simons-matter theories equals a sum of twisted traces on tensor products of Verma modules over the quantization of the moduli…

Using localization technique, we calculate the partition function and the expectation value of Wilson loop operator in Chern-Simons theory on general lens spaces L(p,q)(including S2XS1). Our results are consistent with known results.

We provide quantitative evidence for our previous conjecture which states an equivalence of the partition function of a 3d N=2 gauge theory on a duality wall and that of the SL(2,R) Chern-Simons theory on a mapping torus, for a class of…

A relation between the 4d superconformal index and the S^3 partition function is studied with focus on the 4d and 3d actions used in localization. In the case of vanishing Chern-Simons levels and round S^3 we explicitly show that the 3d…
