Non-Abelian Localization and U(1) Chern-Simons Theory
This thesis studies U(1) Chern-Simons theory and its relation to the results of Chris Beasley and Edward Witten (2005). Using the partition function formalism, we are led to compare U(1) Chern-Simons theory as constructed by Manoliu (1998) to the results of Beasley and Witten (2005). This leads to...
