Coherent state quantization of Chern-Simons theory
Description
Three-dimensional Chern-Simons gauge theories are quantized in a functional coherent state formalism. The connection with two-dimensional conformal field theory is found to emerge naturally. The normalized wave functionals are identified as generating functionals for the chiral blocks of two-dimensional current algebra
