"Cotangent Complexes of $C^{\infty}$-Rings"

A $C^{\infty}$-ring is essentially an $\mathbb{R}$-algebra equipped with a smooth multivariate functional calculus. We'll study notions of smoothness and transversality for useful generalizations of manifolds in differential geometry; making use of this formalism.
