abstract
We study contact terms of conserved currents and the energy-momentum tensor in three-dimensional quantum field theory. They are associated with Chern-Simons terms for background fields. While the integer parts of these contact terms are ambiguous, their fractional parts are meaningful physical observables. In N=2 supersymmetric theories with a U(1)_R symmetry some of these observables lead to an anomaly. Moreover, they can be computed exactly using localization, leading to new tests of dualities.

Exact infrared solutions for surface criticalities in the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa model encode fermionic anomalies in surface dynamics and reveal emergent structures linked to a defect version of the CFT distance conjecture.
High-temperature limits on higher sheets of the superconformal index for (A1,A2n) Argyres-Douglas theories yield Gang-Kim-Stubbs 3d N=2 theories whose boundaries support Virasoro minimal model VOAs M(2,2n+3) and associated MTCs.
