Scalar curvature and the moment map in generalized Kahler geometry

Abstract: We introduce a notion of scalar curvature of a twisted generalized Kahler manifold in terms of pure spinors formalism. A moment map framework with a modified action of generalized Hamiltonians on an arbitrary compact generalized Kahler manifold is developed. Then it turns out that a moment map is given by the scalar curvature, which is a generalization of the result of the scalar curvature as a moment map in the ordinary Kahler geometry, due to Fujiki and Donaldson. A noncommutative compact Lie group $G$ does not have any Kahler structure. However, we show that every compact Lie group admits generalized Kahler structures with constant scalar curvature. In particular, generalized Kahler structures with constant scalar curvature on the standard Hopf surface are explicitly given.
