We give a complete classification of twists of supersymmetric Yang–Mills theories in dimensions. We formulate supersymmetric Yang–Mills theory classically using the BV formalism, and then we construct an action of the supersymmetry algebra using the language ofalgebras. For each orbit in the space of square-zero supercharges in the supersymmetry algebra, under the action of the spin group and the group of R-symmetries, we give a description of the corresponding twisted theory. These twists can be described in terms of mixed holomorphic-topological versions of Chern–Simons and BF theory.
