Contact manifolds and generalized complex structures

David Iglesias-Ponte, Aïssa Wade

Published 2004-04-28, updated 2004-05-05Version 2

We give simple characterizations of contact 1-forms in terms of Dirac structures. We also relate normal almost contact structures to the theory of Dirac structures.
