Abstract

We introduce the basic elements of some cohomology theories that arise naturally in the context of supermanifold theory.

Talk presented by the second author at the XVIth International Colloquium on Group Theoretical Methods in Physics, Varna (Bulgaria), 15–20 June 1987.

Research partially supported by the National Group for Mathematical Physics of the Italian Research Council and by the Italian Ministry for Public Education through the research project “Geometria e Fisica”.
