Abstract

We discuss the dynamics of three-dimensional Maxwell theory coupled to a level-k Chern-Simons term. Motivated by S-duality in string theory, we argue that the theory admits an S-dual description. The S-dual theory contains a nongauge one-form field, previously proposed by Deser and Jackiw [Phys. Let...
