ALMOST COMPLEX STRUCTURES AND CONNECTIONS ON TM Anton Dekr\'et Key words: Tangent bundle, tangent value (1,1)-form, almost complex structure, connection, semispray. 1991 Math. Subject Classification: 53C05, 58A20. Abstract: Let $\alpha$ be a vector (1,1)-form on $TM$. In this paper natural operators transforming $\alpha $ into connections on $TM$, especially when $\alpha$ is an almost complex structure, are studied and some their properties are found.
