Consequences of symmetry

First, a discussion of symmetry properties, which in turn relates to bases, dual bases, and transposes. This is required because we want to find relationships between self-mappings of a vector space and mappings such as the inner product, which have already been described. Each time something new is brought forth, its influence on all that has gone before needs to be considered.
