AbstractIn this work we study some physical phenomena that emerge in the vicinity of a magnetoelectric boundary. For simplicity, we restrict to the case of a planar boundary described by a coupling between the gauge field with a planar external Chern–Simons-like potential. The results are obtained exactly. We compute the correction undergone by the photon propagator due to the presence of the Chern–Simons coupling and we investigate the interaction between a stationary point-like charge and the magnetoelectric boundary. In the limit of a perfect mirror, where the coupling constant between the field and the potential diverges, we recover the image method. For a non perfect mirror, we show that we have an attenuated image charge and, in addition, an image magnetic monopole whose field strength does not exhibit the presence of the undesirable and artificial divergences introduced by Dirac strings. We also study the interaction between the plate and a quantum particle with spin. In this case we have a kind of charge-magnetic dipole interaction due to the magnetoelectric properties of the plate.

We study the fermionisation of Seiberg–Witten mapped action (to order θ) of the λϕ4 theory coupled minimally with U(1) gauge field governed by Chern–Simons action. Starting from the corresponding partition function we derive nonperturbatively (in coupling constant) the partition function of the spin-1/2 theory following Polyakov spin factor formalism. We find that the dual interacting fermionic theory is nonlocal. This feature also persists in the limit of vanishing self-coupling. In θ → 0 limit, the commutative result is obtained.

AbstractWe study massive scalar field perturbation on Kerr black holes in dynamical Chern–Simons gravity by performing a $$(2+1)$$ ( 2 + 1 ) -dimensional simulation. Object pictures of the wave dynamics in time domain are obtained. The tachyonic instability is found to always occur for any nonzero black hole spin and any scalar field mass as long as the coupling constant exceeds a critical value. The presence of the mass term suppresses or even quench the instability. The quantitative dependence of the onset of the tachyonic instability on the coupling constant, the scalar field mass and the black hole spin is given numerically.

The interactions that can be introduced between a massless Rarita–Schwinger field and an Abelian three-form gauge field in 11 space–time dimensions are analyzed in the context of the deformation of the "free" solution of the master equation combined with local BRST cohomology. Under the hypotheses of smoothness of the interactions in the coupling constant, locality, Poincaré invariance, Lorentz covariance, and the presence of at most two derivatives in the Lagrangian of the interacting theory (the same number of derivatives as in the free Lagrangian), we prove that there are neither cross-couplings nor self-interactions for the gravitino in D = 11. The only possible term that can be added to the deformed solution to the master equation is nothing but a generalized Chern–Simons term for the three-form gauge field, which brings contributions to the deformed Lagrangian, but does not modify the original, Abelian gauge transformations.

The topological Chern-Simons gauge theory is studied in the framework of perturbation theory. Both dimensional and F2 regularizations are used. We demonstrate the vanishing of the beta function up to three loops, the absence of diffeomorphism anomaly in the calculation of two- and three-point functions, and the validity of a topological Ward identity by finite renormalization of the coupling constant. The regularization dependence of the finite renormalization and an ambiguity in the dimensional regularization are also discussed.
