Abstract
We prove a Frölicher-type inequality for a compact generalized complex manifold \(M\), and show that the equality holds if and only if \(M\) satisfies the generalized \(\partial \bar{\partial }\)-Lemma. In particular, this gives a unified proof of analogous results in the complex and symplectic cases.
