dc.descriptionWe consider Courant and Courant-Jacobi brackets on the stable tangent bundle $TM\times\mathds{R}^h$ of a differentiable manifold and corresponding Dirac, Dirac-Jacobi and generalized complex structures. We prove that Dirac and Dirac-Jacobi structures on $TM\times\mathds{R}^h$ can be prolonged to $TM\times\mathds{R}^k$, $k>h$, by means of commuting infinitesimal automorphisms. Some of the stable, generalized, complex structures are a natural generalization of the normal, almost contact structures; they are expressible by a system of tensors $(P,θ,F,Z_a,ξ^a)$ $(a=1,...,h)$, where $P$ is a bivector field, $θ$ is a 2-form, $F$ is a $(1,1)$-tensor field, $Z_a$ are vector fields and $ξ^a$ are 1-forms, which satisfy conditions that generalize the conditions satisfied by a normal, almost contact structure $(F,Z,ξ)$. We prove that such a generalized structure projects to a generalized, complex structure of a space of leaves and characterize the structure by means of the projected structure and of a normal bundle of the foliation. Like in the Boothby-Wang theorem about contact manifolds, principal torus bundles with a connection over a generalized, complex manifold provide examples of this kind of generalized, normal, almost contact structures.
