In this paper, the dimensional reduction is applied to the Lee-Wick electrodynamics in which the classical sources are confined on a spatial plane. As result, the Lee-Wick pseudo-electrodynamics is achieved as a non-local electromagnetism…
We study a nonlocal theory that combines both the Pseudo quantum electrodynamics (PQED) and Chern-Simons actions among two-dimensional electrons. In the static limit, we conclude that the competition of these two interactions yields a…

The one-loop quantum corrections of Chern-Simons spinor electrodynamics in the light-cone gauge has been investigated. We have calculated the vacuum polarization tensor, fermionic self-energy and on-shell vertex correction with a hybrid…
We consider the Lee-Wick (LW) finite electrodynamics, i.e., the U(1) gauge theory where a (gauge-invariant) dimension-6 operator containing higher-derivatives is added to the free Lagrangian of the U(1) sector. Three bounds on the LW heavy…
We consider a Lorentz-violating modification to the fermionic Lagrangian of QED that is known to produce a finite Chern-Simons term at leading order. We compute the second order correction to the one-loop photon self-energy in the massless…
Chern-Simons electrodynamics in 2+1-spacetimes with torsion is investigated. We start from the usual Chern-Simons (CS) electrodynamics Lagrangian and Cartan torsion is introduced in the covariant derivative and by a direct coupling of…

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…
Mixed dimensional theories have been used to describe condensed matter systems where fermions are constrained to a plane while the gauge fields they interact with remain four-dimensional. Here we investigate dynamical breaking of chiral…
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…
The theory of a spinor field interacting with a pure Chern-Simons gauge field in 2+1 dimensions is quantized. Dynamical and nondynamical variables are separated in a gauge-independent way. After the nondynamical variables are dropped, this…
Quantum electrodynamics (QED) of electrons confined in a plane and that yet can undergo interactions mediated by an unconstrained photon has been described by the so-called {\it pseudo-QED} (PQED), the (2+1)-dimensional version of the…
We argue that the Standard Model is accompanied by a new pseudo-scalar degree of freedom, $\eta_{\rm w}$-meson, which cancels the topological susceptibility of the electroweak vacuum and gets its mass from this effect. The prediction is…
We study the effect of a Chern-Simons term on the electrically charged and spinning solitons of several $U(1)$ gauged models in $2+1$ dimensions. These are vortices of complex scalar field theories, both with and without symmetry breaking…
In this paper we discuss some aspects concerning the electromagnetic sector of the abelian Lee-Wick (LW) quantum electrodynamics (QED). Using the Dirac's theory of constrained systems, the higher-order canonical quantization of the LW…
Tha quantum electrodynamics of particles constrained to move on a plane is not a fully dimensionally reduced theory because the gauge fields through which they interact live in higher dimensions. By constraining the gauge field to the…
We study the hydrodynamic limit of the Chern--Simons--Higgs system, a relativistic gauge field model involving the Chern--Simons interaction. We introduce a single scaling parameter capturing both the non-relativistic (infinite speed of…
We present a second order gravity action which consists of ordinary Einstein action augmented by a first-order, vector like, Chern-Simons quasi topological term. This theory is ghost-free and propagates a pure spin-2 mode. It is…
Chiral symmetry breaking comes from the mass dynamically generated through interaction of Dirac fermions for both quantum electrodynamics in (2+1)D (QED3) and (3+1)D (QED4). In QED3, the presence of a Chern-Simons (CS) parameter affects the…
