We examine the status of the Chern-Simons (or Kodama) state from the point of view of a formulation of gravity that uses only real connection and metric variables and a real action. We may package the {\it real} connection variables into…
We have constructed a four-fermion theory coupled to a Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons gauge field which admits static multi-vortex solutions. This is achieved through the introduction of an anomalous magnetic interation term in addition to the…
Vortices represent a class of topological solitons arising in gauge theories coupled with complex scalar fields, holding significant importance across various domains of modern physics. In this paper we establish the existence of vortex…
Chern-Simons models for gravity are interesting because they provide with a truly gauge-invariant action principle in the fiber-bundle sense. So far, their main drawback has largely been the perceived remoteness from standard General…
We study a non-Abelian Chern-Simons gauge theory in $ 2+ 1$ dimensions with the inclusion of an anomalous magnetic interaction. For a particular relation between the Chern-Simons (CS) mass and the anomalous magnetic coupling the equations…

Non-Abelian vortices for a supersymmetric {\cal N}=2 Chern-Simons-Higgs theory are explicitly constructed. We introduce N Higgs fields in the fundamental representation of the U(N) gauge group in order to have a color-flavor SU(N) group…
We produce examples of solutions to the non-abelian gravitating vortex equations, which are a dimensional reduction of the K\"aher-Yang-Mills- Higgs equations. These are equations for a K\"ahler metric and a metric on a vector bundle. We…
We construct explicit multivortex solutions for the complex sine-Gordon equation (the Lund-Regge model) in two Euclidean dimensions. Unlike the previously found (coaxial) multivortices, the new solutions comprise $n$ single vortices placed…

Vortex solutions in $U(1)\times U(1)$ Chern-Simons theory coupled to a pair of hard-core bosons representing two layers of electrons are analysed. It is shown that there is such a range of parameters $(\alpha\beta<\gamma^{2})$ in which…
We provide evidence for conjectural dualities between nonrelativistic Chern-Simons-matter theories and theories of (fractional, nonAbelian) quantum Hall fluids in $2+1$ dimensions. At low temperatures, the dynamics of nonrelativistic…
