In the theory of relative algebraic geometry, our affines are objects in the opposite category of commutative monoids in a symmetric monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$. This categorical approach simplifies many constructions and allows us to compare different geometries. Toën and Vezzosi's theory of homotopical algebraic geometry considers the case when $\mathcal{C}$ has a model structure and is endowed with a compatible symmetric monoidal structure. Derived algebraic geometry is recovered when we take $\mathcal{C}=\textbf{sMod}_k$, the category of simplicial modules over a simplicial commutative ring $k$.
In Kremnizer et al.'s version of derived analytic geometry, we consider geometry relative to the category $\textbf{sMod}_k$ where $k$ is now a simplicial commutative complete bornological ring. In this talk we discuss, from an algebraist's perspective, the main ideas behind the theory of relative algebraic geometry and discuss briefly how it provides us with a convenient framework to consider derived analytic geometry.
