• Resumen

  • We study almost complex structures with lower bounds on the rank of the Nijenhuis tensor. Namely, we show that they satisfy an h-principle. As a consequence, all parallelizable manifolds and all manifolds of dimension 2n ≥ 10 (respectively ≥ 6) admit a almost complex structure whose Nijenhuis tensor has maximal rank everywhere (resp. is nowhere trivial). For closed 4-manifolds, the existence of such structures is characterized in terms of topological invariants. Moreover, we show that the Dolbeault cohomology of non-integrable almost complex structures is often infinite dimensional (even on compact manifolds).
