Abstract

The convenient setting for smooth mappings, holomorphic mappings, and real analytic mappings in infinite dimension is sketched. Infinite dimensional manifolds are discussed with special emphasis on smooth partitions of unity and tangent vectors as derivations. Manifolds of mappings and diffeomorphisms are treated. Finally the differential structure on the inductive limits of the groups GL(n)GL(n), SO(n)SO(n) and some of their homogeneus spaces is treated.
