Idea

An ind-scheme is an ind-object in the category of algebraic schemes which can be presented as a filtered colimit of schemes where all morphisms are closed embeddings of schemes?. Various variants of ‘the’ category of formal schemes are proper subcategories of the category of ind-schemes. While many analytic varieties have a structure of algebraic varieties, and loops in a manifold or in an analytic variety can be treated via infinite-dimensional manifolds, their algebraic analogues are examples of ind-schemes.
