A convenient category of supermanifolds

With a view towards applications in the theory of infinite-dimensional representations of finite-dimensional Lie supergroups, we introduce a new category of supermanifolds. In this category, supermanifolds of `maps' and `fields' (fibre bundle sections) exist. In particular, loop supergroups can be realised globally in this framework. It also provides a convenient setting for induced representations of supergroups, allowing for a version of Frobenius reciprocity. Finally, convolution algebras of finite-dimensional Lie supergroups are introduced and applied to a prove a supergroup Dixmier-Malliavin Theorem: The space of smooth vectors of a continuous representation of a supergroup pair equals the Garding space given by the convolution with compactly supported smooth supergroup densities.
