Topological aspects of Abelian gauge theory in superfield formulation

We discuss some aspects of the topological features of a non-interacting two (1+1)-dimensional Abelian gauge theory in the framework of superfield formalism. This theory is described by a BRST invariant Lagrangian density in the Feynman gauge. We express the local and continuous symmetries, Lagrangian density, topological invariants and symmetric energy momentum tensor of this theory in the language of superfields by exploiting the nilpotent (anti-)BRST- and (anti-)co-BRST symmetries. In particular, the Lagrangian density and symmetric energy momentum tensor of this topological theory turn out to be the sum of terms that geometrically correspond to the translations of some local superfields along the Grassmannian directions of the four (2+2)-dimensional supermanifold. In this interpretation, the (anti-)BRST- and (anti-)co-BRST symmetries, that emerge after the imposition of the (dual) horizontality conditions, play a very important role.
