Unitary 1-matrix models are shown to be exactly equivalent to hermitian 1-matrix models coupled to 2N vectors with appropriate potentials, to all orders in the 1/N expansion. This fact allows us to use all the techniques developed and…

Recently it was found that the density matrix for a certain orthosymplectic Chern-Simons theory matches with that for the ABJM theory with the odd chiral projection. We prove this fact for a general case with the inclusion of fractional…

We present higher Chern-Simons theories based on (2-)crossed modules. We start from the generalized differential forms in Generalized Differential Calculus and define the corresponding generalized connections which consist of higher…

The Chern-Simons approach has been widely used to explain fractional quantum Hall states in the framework of trial wave functions. In the present paper, we generalise the concept of Chern-Simons transformations to systems with any number of…

We show that matrix models in Chern-Simons theory admit an interpretation as 1D exactly solvable models, paralleling the relationship between the Gaussian matrix model and the Calogero model. We compute the corresponding Hamiltonians,…

We study the $\lambda$--deformation of symmetric coset models from the viewpoint of a four dimensional Chern-Simons theory \cite{CY3}. In addition, by applying the "dual" boundary conditions of the ones used in the construction…

A U(N) Chern-Simons theory on noncommutative $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ is constructed as a $\q$-deformed field theory. The model is characterized by two symmetries: the BRST-symmetry and the topological linear vector supersymmetry. It is shown that…

We consider the moduli space of flat connections on the Riemann surface with marked points. The new efficient parametrization is suggested and used to construct an integrable model on the moduli space. A family of commuting Hamiltonians is…

We study a matrix model obtained by dimensionally reducing Chern-Simon theory on S^3. We find that the matrix integration is decomposed into sectors classified by the representation of SU(2). We show that the N-block sectors reproduce SU(N)…

We use the Villain approximation to show that the Gross-Witten model, in the weak- and strong-coupling limits, is related to the unitary matrix model that describes U(N) Chern-Simons theory on S^3. The weak-coupling limit corresponds to the…

We study the Chern-Simons $CP(N)$ models with a global $U(1)$ symmetry and found the self-dual models among them. The Bogomolnyi-type bound in these self-dual models is a nontrivial generalization of that in the pure $CP(N)$ models. Our…

We study the reflected entropy between two spatial regions in $(2+1)$-dimensional Chern-Simons theories. Taking advantage of its replica trick formulation, the reflected entropy is computed using the edge theory approach and the surgery…

Chern-Simons gauge theory is formulated on three dimensional $Z_2$ orbifolds. The locus of singular points on a given orbifold is equivalent to a link of Wilson lines. This allows one to reduce any correlation function on orbifolds to a sum…

We formulate Poisson Chern-Simons gauge theories on compact group manifolds. These describe a sector of the large representation limit of noncommutative Chern-Simons in the same way as the light-cone formulation of the membrane action…
