DG manifolds in geometry and mathematical physics

A DG manifold is a supermanifold supplied with an additional Z-grading and an odd vector field of degree 1 the square of which is zero. The aim of this talk is to show the appearance of such structures in geometry and mathematical physics (in BV formalism).
