In a previous paper [\AS], we used superspace techniques to prove that perturbation theory (around a classical solution with no zero modes) for Chern--Simons quantum field theory on a general $3$-manifold $M$ is finite. We conjectured (and…
In this talk some recent results in the quantization of Chern-Simons field theories in the Coulomb gauge will be presented. In the first part, the consistency of the Chern-Simons field theories in this gauge is proven using the Dirac's…
In this work the generation of generalized Chern-Simons terms in three dimensional quantum electrodynamics with high spatial derivatives is studied. We analyze the self-energy corrections to the gauge field propagator by considering an…
In this letter the Chern-Simons field theories are studied in the Coulomb gauge using the Dirac's canonical formalism for constrained systems. As a strategy, we first work out the constraints and then quantize, replacing the Dirac brackets…
We consider here the Chern-Simons field theory with gauge group SU(N) in the presence of a gravitational background that describes a two-dimensional expanding ``universe". Two special cases are treated here in detail: the spatially flat…
We show that the renormalized U(N) noncommutative Chern-Simons theory can be defined in perturbation theory so that there are no loop corrections to the 1PI functional of the theory in an arbitrary homogeneous axial (time-like, light-like…
We couple three-dimensional Chern-Simons gauge theory with BF theory and study deformations of the theory by means of the antifield BRST formalism. We analyze all possible consistent interaction terms for the action under physical…
Considering three-dimensional Chern-Simons theory, either coupled to matter or with a Yang-Mills term, we show the validity of a trace identity, playing the role of a local form of the Callan-Symanzik equation, in all orders of perturbation…
In this paper, we will analyze a three dimensional supersymmetric Chern-Simons theory on a manifold with a boundary. The boundary we will consider in this paper will be defined by $n\cdot x=0$, where $n$ is a light-like vector. It will be…
In this paper, we will analyse a three dimensional supersymmetric Chern-Simons theory in SIM(1) superspace formalism. The breaking of the Lorentz symmetry down to the SIM(1) symmetry, breaks half the supersymmetry of the Lorentz invariant…
We revisit and clarify some aspects of perturbative renormalization in pure Chern-Simons theory by means of a localization principle associated with an underlying supersymmetry. This perspective allows the otherwise perturbative one-loop…
A gauge invariant quantum field theory with a spacetime dependent Chern-Simons coefficient is studied. Using a constraint formalism together with the Schwinger action principle it is shown that non-zero gradients in the coefficient induce…
We examine Chern-Simons theory as a deformation of a 3-dimensional BF theory that is partially holomorphic and partially topological. In particular, we introduce a novel gauge that leads naturally to a one-loop exact quantization of this BF…
We study the perturbative path integral of Chern-Simons theory (the effective BV action on zero-modes) in Lorenz gauge, expanded around a (possibly non-acyclic) flat connection, as a family over the smooth irreducible stratum $\mathcal{M}'…
The abelian Chern-Simons theory is perturbed by introducing local gauge-invariant interaction terms depending on the curvature. The computation of the correlation function of two Wilson lines for two smooth closed nonintersecting curves is…
We present an elementary review of some aspects of Chern-Simons theory with complex gauge group SL(N,C). We discuss some of the challenges in defining the theory as a full-fledged TQFT, as well as some successes inspired by the 3d-3d…
In this work, we study the three-dimensional non-Abelian noncommutative supersymmetric Chern-Simons model with the U(N) gauge group. Using a superfield formulation, we prove that, for the pure gauge theory, the Green functions are one-loop…
We show that Chern-Simons gauge theory with appropriate cutoffs is equivalent, term by term in perturbation theory, to a Fermionic theory with a nonlocal interaction term. When an additional cutoff is placed on the Fermi fields, this…
In this paper we analyse super-Chern-Simons theory in $\mathcal{N} =1$ superspace formalism, in the presence of a boundary. We modify the Lagrangian for the Chern-Simons theory in such a way that it is supersymmetric even in the presence of…
Recent studies of the $AdS_4/CFT_3$ correspondence involve the construction of a peculiar supersymmetric gauge theory on the worldvolume of multiple M2s branes as a boundary field theory. Under suitable conditions the quantum theory becomes…
