4d Chern-Simons theory as a 3d Toda theory, and a 3d-2d correspondence

چکیده

We show that the four-dimensional Chern-Simons theory studied by Costello, Witten and Yamazaki, is, with Nahm pole-type boundary conditions, dual to a is three-dimensional analogue of Toda novel 3d W-algebra symmetry. By embedding in partial twist five-dimensional maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills on manifold corners, we argue this two-dimensional topological sigma model A-branes moduli space solutions Bogomolny equations. This furnishes 3d-2d correspondence, which, among other mathematical implications, also reveals modules are for quantized algebra certain holomorphic functions space.

A note on Gribov copies in 3D Chern-Simons theory

In the present paper, using powerful tools of harmonic maps and integrable systems, all the Gribov copies in the Coulomb gauge in 3D Chern-Simons theory are constructed. This result strongly suggets that the so-called uniton number (known in the theory of harmonic maps) could be related to the well known shift of the Chern-Simons coupling constant. The Gribov copies of the vacuum in 3D QCD in t...

Chern-simons Gauge Theory as a String Theory

Certain two dimensional topological field theories can be interpreted as string theory backgrounds in which the usual decoupling of ghosts and matter does not hold. Like ordinary string models, these can sometimes be given space-time interpretations. For instance, three-dimensional Chern-Simons gauge theory can arise as a string theory. The world-sheet model in this case involves a topological ...

CHERN–SIMONS GAUGE THEORY AND THE AdS3/CFT2 CORRESPONDENCE

The bulk partition function of pure Chern–Simons theory on a three-manifold is a state in the space of conformal blocks of the dual boundary RCFT, and therefore transforms non-trivially under the boundary modular group. In contrast the bulk partition function of AdS3 string theory is the modular-invariant partition function of the dual CFT on the boundary. This is a puzzle because AdS3 string t...

4d Edge Currents from 5d Chern-simons Theory

A class of two dimensional conformal field theories is known to correspond to three dimensional Chern-Simons theory. Here we claim that there is an analogous class of four dimensional field theories corresponding to five dimensional Chern-Simons theory. The four dimensional theories give a coupling between a scalar field and an external divergenceless vector field and they may have some applica...

Chern–Simons Perturbation Theory

We study the perturbation theory for three dimensional Chern–Simons quantum field theory on a general compact three manifold without boundary. We show that after a simple change of variables, the action obtained by BRS gauge fixing in the Lorentz gauge has a superspace formulation. The basic properties of the propagator and the Feynman rules are written in a precise manner in the language of di...
