A doubled discretization of Abelian Chern-Simons theory

A new discretization of a doubled, i.e., BF, version of the pure Abelian Chern-Simons theory is presented. It reproduces the continuum expressions for the topological quantities of interest in the theory, namely, the partition function and correlation function of Wilson loops. Similarities with free...
