Scalar curvature as moment map in generalized Kahler geometry

It is known that the scalar curvature arises as the moment map in Kahler geometry. In pursuit of this analogy, we introduce the notion of a moment map in generalized Kahler geometry which gives the definition of a generalized scalar curvature on a generalized Kahler manifold. From the viewpoint of the moment map, we obtain the generalized Ricci form which is a representative of the first Chern class of the anticanonical line bundle. It turns out that infinitesimal deformations of generalized Kahler structures with constant generalized scalar curvature are finite dimensional on a compact manifold. Explicit descriptions of the generalized Ricci form and the generalized scalar curvature are given on a generalized Kahler manifold of type $(0,0)$. Poisson structures constructed from a Kahler action of $T^m$ on a Kahler-Einstein manifold give intriguing deformations of generalized Kahler-Einstein structures. In particular, the anticanical divisor consists of three lines on $C P^2$ in general position yields nontrivial examples of generalized Kahler-Einsein structures
