Abstract
We show that closed differential forms on a smooth manifold X can be interpreted astopological(respectivelyEudlidean)supersymmetricfieldtheoriesofdimension0j1overX. As a consequence, concordance classes of such field theories are shown to represent de Rham cohomology. The main contribution of this paper is to make all new mathematical notions regarding supersymmetric field theories precise.
