Abstract
Let k be a commutative field and let V be a finite dimensional ĸ-vector space. We set \(r := \dim_{K} V\). We denote by V* the dual of V.
The group GL(V) acts on \(V \times V^{*}: {\rm if}\,\, r = (v, v^{*}) \in V \times V^{*}\) and if \(g \in {\rm GL}(V),\) we set
Let us state a list of remarks, elementary properties, definitions and notation.
