Supersymmetric Chern-Simons theories with vector matter

A bstract In this paper we discuss SU( N ) Chern-Simons theories at level k with both fermionic and bosonic vector matter. In particular we present an exact calculation of the free energy of the supersymmetric model (with one chiral field) for all values of the ’t Hooft coupling in the large N limit...

Summary:A bstract In this paper we discuss SU( N ) Chern-Simons theories at level k with both fermionic and bosonic vector matter. In particular we present an exact calculation of the free energy of the supersymmetric model (with one chiral field) for all values of the ’t Hooft coupling in the large N limit. This is done by using a generalization of the standard Hubbard-Stratanovich method because the SUSY model contains higher order polynomial interactions.
