Abstract
We test the consistency of the use of a noncommutative theory description for charged particles in a strong magnetic field, by deriving the induced Chern-Simons (CS) term for an external Abelian gauge field in 2+1 dimensions. In this description, the system is modeled by a noncommutative matter field coupled to a U(1) noncommutative gauge field, related to the original, commutative one, by a Seiberg-Witten transformation. We show that an Abelian CS term for the commutative gauge field is indeed induced, and moreover that it matches the result of previous commutative field theory calculations.
