I'm a PhD student in mathematical physics looking for some orientation. As asked in the title, I would like to know the current state of research in Chern-Simons theory. More specifically, what are some of the directions that people are currently pursuing in this field.
I did not ask for more general topological field theories, but this is largely due to personal interests. Of course, answers related to other TFTs are more than welcome.
I feel this question has been asked before. But since this is a question about the current state of research, I think it deserves an update.
Thank you very much.
