Abstract

We investigate the covariant formulation of Chern–Simons theories in a general odd dimension which can be obtained by introducing a vacuum connection field as a reference. Field equations, Nöther currents and superpotentials are computed so that results are easily compared with the well-known results in dimension 3. Finally we use this covariant formulation of Chern–Simons theories to investigate their relation with topological BF theories.
