Description

Abstract: In this talk, I will give an introduction to mass-deformed Chern-Simons theories, and how one can obtain exact results in these theories using localisation. I will then venture beyond constant masses, into the realm of Lorentz-symmetry breaking mass deformations, and the avenues that opens to understanding QFTs with broken translational symmetries.
