Objective

Use nilpotent infinitesimals to develop differential Geometry of spaces of mappings. Create a theory of Colombeau's generalized functions in such spaces. Study some applications of this Diff. Geom. in Hydrodynamics, Michor's theory, Calculus of Variations, Continuum Mechanics, configuration spaces.
