This chapter begins by introducing various geometries that play important roles in the way they relate to Sasakian structures. It espouses the point of view that a geometric structure is best described as a G-structure which may or may not be (partially) integrable. Some selected topics include: Riemannian metrics, complex structures, symplectic structures, contact structures, quaternionic structures, group actions, pseudogroups, sheaves, bundles, connections, holonomy, curvature and integrability.
Keywords: G-structures, complex structures, symplectic structures, contact structures, quaternionic structures, group actions, pseudogroups, sheaves, Riemannian metrics, holonomy
