In this article, we will compute the expectation value of observables (which appear as Wilson loops) in $\mathrm{U}(1)^n$ Chern-Simons theory for closed oriented $3$-manifolds. We will show how the various topological sectors of the…

We develop tools for the efficient evaluation of Wilson lines in 3D higher spin gravity, and use these to compute entanglement entropy in the hs$[\lambda]$ Vasiliev theory that governs the bulk side of the duality proposal of Gaberdiel and…

We use Brownian dynamics simulations and advanced topological profiling methods to characterize the out-of-equilibrium evolution of self-entanglement in linear polymers confined into nano-channels and under periodic compression. We…

We study the anomalous dimensions for scalar operators for a three-dimensional Chern-Simons theory recently proposed in arXiv:0806.1218. We show that the mixing matrix at two-loop order is that for an integrable Hamiltonian of an SU(4) spin…

We classify symmetry fractionalization and anomalies in a (3+1)d U(1) gauge theory enriched by a global symmetry group $G$. We find that, in general, a symmetry-enrichment pattern is specified by 4 pieces of data: $\rho$, a map from $G$ to…

We study local quenches in 1+1 dimensional conformal field theories at large-c by operators carrying higher spin charge. Viewing such states as solutions in Chern-Simons theory, representing infalling massive particles with spin-three…

Recent work has shown that local supersymmetry on a spacetime boundary in $\mathcal{N}$-extended AdS supergravity in chiral variables implies coupling to a boundary $\mathrm{OSp}(\mathcal{N}|2)_{\mathbb{C}}$ super Chern-Simons theory. We…

We analyze the entanglement entropy in the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick model, which describes mutually interacting spins half embedded in a magnetic field. This entropy displays a singularity at the critical point that we study as a function of…

We compute one-loop corrections to five-dimensional gauge and gravitational Chern-Simons terms induced by integrating out charged massive fields. The considered massive fields are spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 fermions, as well as complex two-forms…

We explore the method of entanglement entropy applied to 2d black holes. We introduce a solvable model of a real scalar field with finite volume and lattice spacing in terms of $N$ coupled mechanical oscillators and compute its entanglement…

We quantify the geometric measure of entanglement in terms of mean values of observables of entangled system. For pure states we find the relation of geometric measure of entanglement with the mean value of spin one-half for the system…

Chern-Simons orbital magnetoelectric (OME) coupling is usually the hallmark of nontrivial band topology in three-dimensional (3D) crystalline insulators. However, if a 3D insulator exhibits nonzero Chern number within any two-dimensional…

We explore the relation between entanglement entropy of quantum many body systems and the distribution of corresponding, properly selected, observables. Such a relation is necessary to actually measure the entanglement entropy. We show that…

We extend finite dimensional Chern-Simons theory to certain infinite dimensional principal bundles with connections, in particular to the frame bundle $FLM\to LM$ over the loop space of a Riemannian manifold $M$. Chern-Simons forms are…

A relation between the conformal anomaly and the logarithmic term in the entanglement entropy is known to exist for CFT's in even dimensions. In odd dimensions the local anomaly and the logarithmic term in the entropy are absent. As was…

We compute various averages over bulk geometries of quantum states prepared by the Chern-Simons path integral, for any level $k$ and compact simple gauge group $G$. We do so by carefully summing over all topologically distinct bulk…

We show how to simplify the computation of the entanglement of formation and the relative entropy of entanglement for states, which are invariant under a group of local symmetries. For several examples of groups we characterize the state…

A group-theoretical structure in a perturbative expansion of the Wilson loops in the 3d Chern-Simons theory with $SU(N)$ gauge group is studied in symmetric approach. A special basis in the center of the universal enveloping algebra…

We use localization techniques to compute the expectation values of supersymmetric Wilson loops in Chern-Simons theories with matter. We find the path-integral reduces to a non-Gaussian matrix model. The Wilson loops we consider preserve a…

We consider the entanglement entropy for a sub-system in d+1 dimensional SU(N) lattice gauge theory. The 1+1 gauge theory is treated exactly and shows trivial behavior. Gauge theories in higher dimensions are treated within Migdal-Kadanoff…
