We first show that such derivation $\\delta$ generates a (1,1)-tensor field (we denote it by $R$). Then, we show that the supercommutation of $d$ and $\\delta$ (which is a natural, essentially necessary condition to get a $d\\delta$-lemma) is equivalent to vanishing of the Nijenhujis torsion of $R$. Then, we are looking for sufficient conditions that ensure the $d\\delta$-lemma holds: we consider the cases when $R$ is self adjoint with respect to a Riemannian metric or compatible with an almost symplectic structure. Finally, we show that if $R$ is scew-symmetric with respect to a Riemannian metric, has constant determinant, and if its Nijenhujis torsion vanishes, then the orthogonal component of $R$ in its polar decomposition is a complex structure compatible with the metric, which gives us a new characterization of K\\\"ahler structures", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-03-20T19:03:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "kähler manifolds", "nijenhuis bracket", "lemma holds", "riemannian metric", "nijenhujis torsion vanishes" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1103.3877D" } } }
