The N=1 superstring as a topological field theory

preprint1994arXivOpen access

Abstract

By "untwisting" the construction of Berkovits and Vafa, one can see that the N=1 superstring contains a topological twisted N=2 algebra, with central charge c^ = 2. We discuss to what extent the superstring is actually a topological theory.
