Embedded surfaces and almost complex structures
Published 1998-12-09Version 1
We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for a smooth surface in a 4-manifold X to be pseudoholomorphic with respect to some almost complex structure on X. This provides a systematic approach to the construction of pseudoholomorphic curves that do not minimize the genus in their homology class.
