A compatible almost complex structure is a smooth bundle map $J:TM\to TM$ such that, for all tangent vectors $u,v$,It determines the Riemannian metricIndeed, the invariance of the symplectic form under $J$ and its antisymmetry imply $\omega (v,Ju)=\omega (u,Jv)$, so $g$ is symmetric; the positivity condition makes it positive definite. A compatible triple consists of this symplectic form, this compatible almost complex structure, and this Riemannian metric. Useful equivalent identities are $\omega (u,v)=g(Ju,v)$ and $g(Ju,Jv)=g(u,v)$.
