N = 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ Chern-Simons-matter theories without vortices

Abstract We study N = 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ Chern-Simons-matter theories with gauge group U k 1 1 × U k 2 1 $$ {U}_{k_1}(1)\times {U}_{k2}(1) $$ . We find that, when k 1 + k 2 = 0, the partition function computed by localization dramatically simplifies and collapses to a single term. We show that th...
