In this paper, we study the restoration of gauge symmetry and up to half the supersymmetry ( N=(2,0) or N=(1,1) in two dimensions) for N=2 non-Abelian Chern–Simons theories in the presence of a boundary. We describe the boundary action which is a supersymmetric WZW model coupled to the bulk Chern–Simons theory. Unlike the N=1 case, higher supersymmetry ( N=(2,0) ) will endow the group manifold of the WZW model with a complex structure. Therefore, the N=(2,0) WZW model in our paper is constructed via a coset space Gc/G , where G is the same as the gauge group in the Chern–Simons action.
