On almost complex structures from classical linear connections

Abstract
Let be the category of -dimensional manifolds and local diffeomorphisms and let be the tangent functor on . Let be the category of real vector spaces and linear maps and let be the category of -dimensional real vector spaces and linear isomorphisms. We characterize all regular covariant functors admitting -natural operators transforming classical linear connections on -dimensional manifolds into almost complex structures on .
