Chern-Simons theory on Seifert 3-manifolds

We study Chern-Simons theory on 3-manifolds M that are circle-bundles over 2-dimensional orbifolds Sigma by the method of Abelianisation. This method, which completely sidesteps the issue of having to integrate over the moduli space of non-Abelian flat connections, reduces the complete partition function of the non-Abelian theory on M to a 2-dimensional Abelian theory on the orbifold Sigma, which is easily evaluated.
