Unobstructed K-deformations of generalized complex structures and bi-Hermitian structures (Q452057)

In [\textit{V. Apostolov}, \textit{P. Gauduchon} and \textit{G. Grantcharov}, Proc. Lond. Math. Soc., III. Ser. 92, No. 1, 200--202 (2006; Zbl 1089.53503)], the following question is adressed. Which compact complex surfaces admit non-trivial bi-Hermitian structures? The present paper answers this question in the case of Kähler surfaces and non-trivial bi-Hermitian structures that satisfy a torsion condition. This is done using the correspondence between these bi-Hermitian structures and generalized Kähler structures [\textit{M. Gualtieri}, Ann. Math. (2) 174, No. 1, 75--123 (2011; Zbl 1235.32020)], together with deformation theory. The author introduces K-deformation of generalized complex structures. These deformations are shown to be unobstructed. With the stability result of generalized Kähler structures [the author, J. Differ. Geom. 84, No. 3, 525--560 (2010; Zbl 1201.53085)], the author shows that a compact Kähler surface admits a non-trivial bi-Hermitian structure with the torsion condition and the same orientation if and only if it has a non-zero holomorphic Poisson structure. Examples such that del Pezzo surfaces or ruled surfaces are studied in more detail.
