Abstract

We compute the scaling dimensions of a large class of disorder operators ("monopoles") in the planar limit of CS-fermion theories.  The lightest such operator is shown to have dimension (2/3) k^{3/2}, where k is the CS level.  The computation is based on recently developed techniques for solving CS-matter at all 't Hooft couplings, and the operator dimensions are obtained by finding complex saddles in the low-temperature phase of the CS-fermion path integral in a monopole background.  We will also discuss the implications of this result to 3D bosonization dualities.
