A topological gauged sigma-model

We describe a topological field theory that studies the moduli space of solutions of the symplectic vortex equations. It contains as special cases the topological sigma-model and topological Yang-Mills over Kähler surfaces. The correlation functions of the theory are closely related to the recently introduced Hamiltonian Gromov--Witten invariants.
