Abstract: In this work, joint with J. Davidov, O. Mushkarov and M. Yotov, we consider an indefinite analog of hypercomplex and hyperhermitian structures on compact complex surfaces. Based on Kodaira's classification there is a list of surfaces which could admit such structures and some examples will be provided. Relations with generalized geometry and pseudo-bihermitian structures will be mentioned.
