Exercises in equivariant cohomology and topological theories
arXiv:hep-th/9611116
Abstract
Equivariant cohomology is suggested as an alternative algebraic framework for the definition of topological field theories constructed by E. Witten circa 1988. It also enlightens the classical Faddeev Popov gauge fixing procedure.
