Generalized almost paracontact structures
  The notion of generalized almost paracontact structure on the generalized tangent bundle $TM\oplus T^*M$ is introduced and its properties are investigated. The case when the manifold $M$ carries an almost paracontact metric structure is also discussed. Conditions for its transformed under a $\beta$- or a $B$-field transformation to be also a generalized almost paracontact structure are given. Finally, the normality of a generalized almost paracontact structure is defined and a characterization of a normal generalized almost paracontact structure induced by an almost paracontact one is given.
