Abstract
The title of the chapter may seem to be all embracing, as almost any thing of the manifold theory may come under this heading. In fact, there is hardly any structure on manifolds that is not influenced by linear algebra. However, we have selected among others two structures on manifolds, namely, the symplectic and contact structures.
