Abstract: Abstract Chern-Simons theory has come to play an important role in three-dimensional topology because of its connections with Ray-Singer analytic torsion [47], the Gauss linking number [25], [14], [57], the Jones polynomial in knot theory [35] and its generalizations [63], [23], and three-manifold invariants [63], [12]. Recently, Chern-Simons forms and actions over noncommutative spaces [7] have been defined [45], [6] and turn out to provide a unifying perspective for topological gauge theories in odd and even dimensions [6].
