※ In this paper, I use the notion of a diffeological space along with Quillen's (Daniel Quillen, American Fields Medallist) model categorical framework to develop a homotopy theory which enables us to deal with smooth maps, and then apply it to infinite-dimensional C^∞-manifolds.
(The ordinary homotopy theory deals with topological spaces and continuous maps. Thus, the principal part of this paper is devoted to the construction of a homotopy theory for the study of infinite-dimensional C^∞-manifolds and smooth maps.)
