Abstract
We analyze the cocycle structure of supersymmetric (susy) quantum mechanics. We restrain our analysis to a special contact susy transformation, as the noncontact nature of the general susy transformations bring us outside the realm of 1-cochains. We disclose the 1-cocycle structure and formally show its triviality. It is also shown that, for a wide class of potentials, the requirement of getting normalizable functions after eliminating the cocycle leads to the conventional criterion for susy breaking.
