Integrability Conditions for Generalized Geometric Structures
Analysis
This paper explores integrability conditions for generalized geometric structures (metrics, almost para-complex structures, and Hermitian structures) on the generalized tangent bundle of a smooth manifold. It investigates integrability with respect to two different brackets (Courant and affine connection-induced) and provides sufficient criteria for integrability. The work extends to pseudo-Riemannian settings and discusses implications for generalized Hermitian and Kähler structures, as well as relationships with weak metric structures. The paper contributes to the understanding of generalized geometry and its applications.
