Abstract

Given smooth manifolds M1,,MnM_1,\ldots, M_n (which may have a boundary or corners), a smooth manifold NN modeled on locally convex spaces and α(N0{})n\alpha\in({\mathbb N}_0\cup\{\infty\})^n, we consider the set Cα(M1××Mn,N)C^\alpha(M_1\times\cdots\times M_n,N) of all mappings f ⁣:M1××MnNf\colon M_1\times\cdots\times M_n\to N which are CαC^\alpha in the sense of Alzaareer. Such mappings admit, simultaneously, continuous iterated directional derivatives of orders αj\leq \alpha_j in the jjth variable for j{1,,n}j\in\{1,\ldots, n\}, in local charts. We show that Cα(M1××Mn,N)C^\alpha(M_1\times\cdots\times M_n,N) admits a canonical smooth manifold structure whenever each MjM_j is compact and NN admits a local addition. The case of non-compact domains is also considered.
