We study an Abelian Higgs model coupled to a background metric. We find Bogomol’nyi equations when the coupling is achieved through an Rɸ2 term (R being the scalar curvature and ɸ the Higgs scalar). Remarkably, these equations coincide with those arising in models where the gauge field dynamics is governed by a Chern-Simons term so that vortex solutions in our system can be related to self-dual Chern-Simons vortices.

A basic problem of classical field theory, which has attracted growing attention over the past decade, is to find and classify all nonlinear deformations of linear abelian gauge theories. The physical interest in studying deformations is to address uniqueness of known nonlinear interactions of gauge fields and to look systematically for theoretical possibilities for new interactions. Mathematically, the study of deformations aims to understand the rigidity of the nonlinear structure of gauge field theories and to uncover new types of nonlinear geometrical structures. The first part of this paper summarizes and significantly elaborates a field-theoretic deformation method developed in earlier work. Some key contributions presented here are, firstly, that the determining equations for deformation terms are shown to have an elegant formulation using Lie derivatives in the jet space associated with the gauge field variables. Secondly, the obstructions (integrability conditions) that must be satisfied by lowest-order deformations terms for existence of a deformation to higher orders are explicitly identified. Most importantly, a universal geometrical structure common to a large class of nonlinear gauge theory examples is uncovered. This structure is derived geometrically from the deformed gauge symmetry and is characterized by a covariant derivative operator plus a nonlinear field strength, related through the curvature of the covariant derivative. The scope of these results encompasses Yang–Mills theory, Freedman–Townsend theory, and Einstein gravity theory, in addition to their many interesting types of novel generalizations that have been found in the past several years. The second part of the paper presents a new geometrical type of Yang–Mills generalization in three dimensions motivated from considering torsion in the context of nonlinear sigma models with Lie group targets (chiral theories). The generalization is derived by a deformation analysis of linear abelian Yang–Mills Chern–Simons gauge theory. Torsion is introduced geometrically through a duality with chiral models obtained from the chiral field form of self-dual (2+2) dimensional Yang–Mills theory under reduction to (2+1) dimensions. Field-theoretic and geometric features of the resulting nonlinear gauge theories with torsion are discussed.

In this paper, we prove the existence of finite-energy electrically and magnetically charged vortex solutions in the full Chern–Simons–Higgs theory, for which both the Maxwell term and the Chern–Simons term are present in the Lagrangian density. We consider both Abelian and non-Abelian cases. The solutions are smooth and satisfy natural boundary conditions. Existence is established via a constrained minimization procedure applied on indefinite action functionals. This work settles a long-standing open problem concerning the existence of dually charged vortices in the classical gauge field Higgs model minimally extended to contain a Chern–Simons term.

Abstract We consider symmetry-resolved entanglement entropy in AdS3/CFT2 coupled to U(1) Chern-Simons theory. We identify the holographic dual of the charged moments in the two-dimensional conformal field theory as a charged Wilson line in the bulk of AdS3, namely the Ryu-Takayanagi geodesic minimally coupled to the U(1) Chern-Simons gauge field. We identify the holonomy around the Wilson line as the Aharonov-Bohm phases which, in the two-dimensional field theory, are generated by charged U(1) vertex operators inserted at the endpoints of the entangling interval. Furthermore, we devise a new method to calculate the symmetry resolved entanglement entropy by relating the generating function for the charged moments to the amount of charge in the entangling subregion. We calculate the subregion charge from the U(1) Chern-Simons gauge field sourced by the bulk Wilson line. We use our method to derive the symmetry-resolved entanglement entropy for Poincaré patch and global AdS3, as well as for the conical defect geometries. In all three cases, the symmetry resolved entanglement entropy is determined by the length of the Ryu-Takayanagi geodesic and the Chern-Simons level k, and fulfills equipartition of entanglement. The asymptotic symmetry algebra of the bulk theory is of $$ \hat{\mathfrak{u}}{(1)}_k $$ u ̂ 1 k Kac-Moody type. Employing the $$ \hat{\mathfrak{u}}{(1)}_k $$ u ̂ 1 k Kac-Moody symmetry, we confirm our holographic results by a calculation in the dual conformal field theory.

We show that the two-loop contribution to the coefficient of the Chern–Simons term in the effective action of the Yang–Mills–Chern–Simons theory is infrared finite in the background field Landau gauge. We also discuss the difficulties in verifying the conjecture, due to topological considerations, that there are no more quantum corrections to the Chern–Simons term other than the well-known one-loop shift of the coefficient.

We show that when a Chern-Simons term is added to the action of SU (N) (N≥3) Yang-Mills theory in five dimensions the usual self-dual topological solitons present in the theory necessarily pick up a (topological) electric charge.

We discuss the properties and interpretation of a discrete sequence of a static spherically symmetric solutions of the Yang-Mills dilaton theory. This sequence is parametrized by the number of zeros, n, of a component of the gauge field potential. It is demonstrated that solutions with odd n possess all the properties of the sphaleron. It is shown that there are normalizable fermion zero modes in the background of these solutions. The question of instability is critically analyzed.

We discuss the nonexistence of nontrivial solutions for the Chern-Simons-Higgs and Chern-Simons-Schrödinger equations. The Derrick-Pohozaev type identities are derived to prove it.

We show explicitly how Batalin–Vilkovisky Yang–Mills action emerges as a homotopy generalization of Chern–Simons theory from the algebraic constructions arising from string field theory.
