Here we consider a duality between lattice fermions and bosons in (2 þ 1) spacetime dimensions, relating free massive Dirac fermions to Abelian Chern-Simons Higgs (ACSH) bosons. To establish the duality, we represent the exact partition function of the lattice fermions in terms of the writhe of fermionic worldlines. On the bosonic side, the partition function is expressed in the writhe of the vortex loops of the particle-vortex dual of the ACSH Lagrangian. In the continuum and scaling limit, we show these to be identical. This result can be understood from the closed fermionic worldlines being direct mappings of the ACSH vortex loops, with the writhe keeping track of particle statistics.
