Abstract

This paper aims at setting out the basics of Z -graded manifolds theory. We introduce Z -graded manifolds from local models and give some of their properties. The requirement to work with a completed graded symmetric algebra to define functions is made clear. Moreover, we define vector fields and exhibit their graded local basis. The paper also reviews some correspondences between differential Z -graded manifolds and algebraic structures.
