Abstract
We describe a generalization of Yang-Mills topological field theory fo r Abelian two-forms in six dimensions. The connection of this theory b y a twist to Poincare supersymmetric theories is given. We also briefl y consider interactions and the case of self-dual three-forms in eight dimensions. (C) 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights re served.
