    This paper deals with the reduction of generalized complex structures. Due to their connection with mirror symmetry, generalized complex structures have been extensively studied. In this work, the authors consider a generalized complex structures \(J\) on a manifold \(M\), endowed with the action of a Lie group \(G\). They study the conditions for \(M/J\) to be a generalized complex manifold. This involves the Marsden-Weinstein reductions of symplectic manifolds. Finally, reduction of generalized Kähler manifolds are also discussed.
