In this paper we develop diagrammatic computations of spontaneous parity-violating anomalies for a complex massive vector field (Proca field) induced by its interaction with an electromagnetic field in a three-dimensional space–time. We also calculate the effective potential energy between two charged particles in Maxwell–Chern–Simons theory in a nonrelativistic limit.

We analyze the phase structure of the CPn−1 model in three-dimensional space–time coupled to fermions, paying special attention to the role played by the Chern–Simons term generated by the fermions. A rich phase structure arises from the large-n expansion.

We propose a gravitation theory in 4 dimensional space-time obtained by compacting to 4 dimensions the five dimensional topological Chern-Simons theory with the gauge group SO(1,5) or SO(2,4) – the de Sitter or anti-de Sitter group of 5-dimensional space-time. In the resulting theory, torsion, which is solution of the field equations as in any gravitation theory in the first order formalism, is not necessarily zero. However, a cosmological solution with zero torsion exists, which reproduces the Lambda-CDM cosmological solution of General Relativity. A realistic solution with spherical symmetry is also obtained.

In order to raise computation speed on the premise of enough numerical accuracy, the Predictor-Corrector Improved Quasi-Static (PC-IQS) method and Nodal Green’s Function Method (NGFM) were combined to solve the three-dimensional space-time neutron diffusion kinetics problems for Cartesian geometry. In addition, the improved quasi-static method and the Krylov algorithm were applied to solve the three-dimensional space-time neutron diffusion kinetics problems for cylindrical geometry. Based on the proposed model, the program of three-dimensional neutron space-time kinetic code has been tested by the two-dimensional and three-dimensional transient numerical benchmarks. The numerical results obtained by this work were in good agreement with the reference solutions.

Some perturbative aspects of Chern–Simons theories are analyzed in a geometric-regularization framework. In particular, we show that the independence from the gauge condition of the regularized theory, which insures its global meaning, does impose a new constraint on the parameters of the regularization. The condition turns out to be the one that arises in pure or topologically massive Yang–Mills theories in three-dimensional space–times. One-loop calculations show the existence of nonvanishing finite renormalizations of gauge fields and coupling constant which preserve the topological meaning of Chern–Simons theory. The existence of a (finite) gauge-field renormalization at one-loop level is compensated by the renormalization of gauge transformations in such a way that the one-loop effective action remains gauge-invariant with respect to renormalized gauge transformations. The independence of both renormalizations from the space–time volume indicates the topological nature of the theory.
