Query: A Lie based 4-dimensional higher Chern-Simons theory   We present and study a model of 4-dimensional higher Chern-Simons theory,
special Chern-Simons (SCS) theory, instances of which have appeared in the
string literature, whose symmetry is encoded in a skeletal semistrict Lie
2-algebra constructed from a compact Lie group with non discrete center. The
field content of SCS theory consists of a Lie valued 2-connection coupled to a
background closed 3-form. SCS theory enjoys a large gauge and gauge for gauge
symmetry organized in an infinite dimensional strict Lie 2-group. The partition
function of SCS theory is simply related to that of a topological gauge theory
localizing on flat connections with degree 3 second characteristic class
determined by the background 3-form. Finally, SCS theory is related to a
3-dimensional special gauge theory whose 2-connection space has a natural
symplectic structure with respect to which the 1-gauge transformation action is
Hamiltonian, the 2-curvature map acting as moment map.
