What form did Simons develop with Shiing-Shen Chern?

  • Chern–Simons form

  • Newton-Leibniz form

  • Euclidean form

  • Gaussian form

Answer

The Chern–Simons form is a mathematical object that describes certain topological invariants in three-dimensional manifolds. It was developed by James Simons and Shiing-Shen Chern in the 1970s and has found applications in various areas of mathematics and physics, including knot theory, gauge theory, and string theory.
