Abstract

A topological gauge invariant Lagrangian for Seiberg--Witten monopoleequations is constructed. The action is invariant under a huge classof gauge transformations which after BRST fixing leads to the BRSTinvariant action associated to Seiberg--Witten monopole topologicaltheory. The supersymmetric transformation of the fields involved inthe construction is obtained from the nilpotent BRST algebra.
