The deeper meaning of matrix transpose

100k Q&A: https://forms.gle/dHnWwszzfHUqFKny7 Transpose isn’t just swapping rows and columns - it’s more about changing perspective to get the same measurements. By understanding the general idea of transpose of a linear map, we can use it to visualise transpose much more directly. We will also heavily rely on the concept of covectors, and touch lightly on metric tensors in special/general relativity, and adjoints in quantum mechanics. As far as I know, this way of visualisation of transpose is original. Most people use SVD (singular value decomposition) for such visualisation, but I think it is much less direct than this one, and also SVD is mostly used for numerical methods, so it feels somewhat unnatural to use a numerical method to explain linear transformations (though, of course, SVD is extremely useful). Please let me know if you know that other people have this specific visualisation. The concept I am introducing here is usually called a “pullback” (and actually the original linear transformation would be called “pushforward”), but as said in the video, another way of thinking about transpose is the notion of “adjoint”. Notes: (1) I am calling covectors a “measuring device”, not only because the level set representation of covectors looks like a ruler when you take a strip of the plane, but also because of its connections with quantum mechanics. A “bra” in quantum mechanics is a covector, and can be thought of as a “measurement”, in the sense of “how likely will you measure that state” (sort of). (2) I deliberately don’t use row vectors to describe covectors, not only because this only works in finite-dimensional spaces, but also because it is awkward for the ordering when we say a transpose matrix acts on the covector. We usually apply transformations on the *left*, but if you treat the covector as a row vector, you have to act the transpose matrix on the *right*. (3) You can do the sort of “exercise” to verify this visualisation of transpose for all (non-singular) matrices, but I think the algebra is slightly too tedious. This is the reason why I spent a lot of time talking about the big picture of transpose - to make the explanation as natural as possible.
