“C∞-Rings” Abstract
Elements of commutative algebras over a fixed field can be used to evaluate polynomials in any (finite) number of variables with coefficients in that field. We will discuss R-algebras whose elements can be inserted into any smooth function unambiguously, not just polynomials. These algebras will allow us to better understand the functor of points in differential geometry.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
