Abstract

A complete mathematical framework for coalgebraic formulation of supergeometry and its infinite-dimensional extension is proposed. Within this approach a supermanifold is defined as a graded coalgebra endowed with a smooth structure. The category of such coalgebras is constructed and analysed. It is shown that it contains as its full subcategories both the category of smooth Fr\'{e}chet manifolds and the category of finite-dimensional Berezin-Leites-Kostant supermanifolds.
