Elliptic Genera, Transgression and Loop Space Chern-simons Forms
We compute the Chern-Simons transgressed forms of some modularly invariant characteristic forms, which are related to the elliptic genera. We study the modularity properties of these secondary characteristic forms and the relations among them. We also compute the Chern-Simons forms of some vector bundles over free loop space.
متن کاملTransgression forms and extensions of Chern-Simons gauge theories
A gauge invariant action principle, based on the idea of transgression forms, is proposed. The action extends the Chern-Simons form by the addition of a boundary term that makes the action gauge invariant (and not just quasi-invariant). Interpreting the spacetime manifold as cobordant to another one, the duplication of gauge fields in spacetime is avoided. The advantages of this approach are pa...

متن کاملOn the moduli space of elliptic Maxwell-Chern-Simons theories
We analyze the moduli space of the low energy limit of threedimensional N = 3 Maxwell-Chern-Simons theories described by circuler quiver diagrams, just like four-dimensional elliptic models. We define the theories by using D3-NS5-(k,1)5-brane systems with general number of fivebranes. The supersymmetry is expected to enhance to N = 4 in the low energy limit. We show that the Higgs branch, in wh...
متن کاملBrs-chern-simons Forms and Cyclic Homology
We use some BRS techniques to construct Chern-Simons forms generalizing the Chern character of K1 groups in the Cuntz-Quillen description of cyclic homology. MSC91: 19D55, 81T13, 81T50
