We compute the Chern-Simons current induced by Wilson fermions on a $d=2n+1$ dimensional lattice, making use of a topological interpretation of the momentum space fermion propagator as a map from the torus to the sphere, $T^{d}\to S^{d}$.…
The goal of these lectures is to exhibit the framing anomaly in the Batalin-Vilkovisky formulation of perturbative Chern-Simons theory. Concretely, we show that the partition function fails to satisfy the Quantum Master Equation, and show…
