Abstract

We consider SU(N) Chern-Simons theory coupled to a scalar field in the fun- damental representation at strictly zero temperature and finite chemical potential for the global U(1)B particle number or flavour symmetry. In the semiclassical regime we identify a Bose condensed ground state with a vacuum...
