 Basis matrix

A matrix whose columns are the coordinate vectors of an ordered basis in a fixed reference basis. It is an invertible matrix, and multiplication by it converts coordinates in the column basis to the reference coordinates: $v=B[v{]}_B$. For a real inner product space with orthonormal reference basis, its Gram matrix is $B^{T}B$, and its reciprocal basis has basis matrix $B^{-T}$.
