Remarks on the Cartan Formula and Its Applications
... A generalized almost complex structure on M̌ is a smooth section J of the endomorphism bundle End(T ⊕ T ∗ ), which satisfies both symplectic and complex conditions, i.e. J ∗ = −J (equivalently, orthogonal with respect to the canonical inner product (4.1)) and J 2 = −1. We can show that the obstructi ...
