Line operators in Chern-Simons-Matter theories and Bosonization in Three Dimensions II -Perturbative Analysis and All-loop Resummation

Barak Gabai, Amit Sever, De-liang Zhong

5/12/22 Published in : arXiv:2212.02518

We study mesonic line operators in Chern-Simons theories with bosonic or fermionic matter in the fundamental representation. In this paper, we elaborate on the classification and properties of these operators using all loop resummation of large N perturbation theory. We show that these theories possess two conformal line operators in the fundamental representation. One is a stable renormalization group fixed point, while the other is unstable. They satisfy first-order chiral evolution equations, in which a smooth variation of the path is given by a factorized product of two mesonic line operators. The boundary operators on which the lines can end are classified by their conformal dimension and transverse spin, which we compute explicitly at finite 't Hooft coupling. We match the operators in the bosonic and fermionic theories.
