Like in the case of an ordinary [[almost complex structure]], a generalized almost complex structure is uniquely determined by its <math>\sqrt{-1}</math>-[[Vector bundle#Operations on vector bundles|eigenbundle]], i.e. a subbundle <math>L</math> of the complexified generalized tangent bundle <math>(\mathbf{T}\oplus\mathbf{T}^*)\otimes\mathbb{C}</math>
given by
 
Line 34:
(ii) ''L'' is '''maximal isotropic''', i.e. its complex [[rank (linear algebra)|rank]] equals ''N'' and <math>\langle\ell,\ell'\rangle=0</math> for all <math>\ell,\ell'\in L.</math>
 
Vice versa, any subbundle ''L'' satisfying (i), (ii) is the <math>\sqrt{-1}</math>-[[eigenbundle]] of a unique generalized complex structure, so that the properties (i), (ii) can be considered as an alternative definition of generalized almost complex structure.
