On the Role of Vector Supersymmetry in Topological Field Theory

Abstract

Vector supersymmetry is typical of topological field theory. Its role in the construction of gauge invariant quantities is explained, as well as its role in the cancellation of the ultraviolet divergences. The example of the Chern-Simons theory in three dimensions is treated in details.
