Right radical of a bilinear form

ID: right-radical-of-a-bilinear-form

The right radical is . If is the matrix of a bilinear form, this condition is . For from the left radical example, the right radical is . The left radical and right radical differ here because the bilinear form is neither symmetric nor alternating. For a symmetric bilinear form or an alternating bilinear form, reversing a zero pairing preserves zero and the two linear subspaces coincide.
