Let $V$ a $mathbb C-$vector space of finite dimension. Let $S,S'in mathcal L(V)$. If there are orthonormal basis $B,B'$ of $V$ s.t. $$|([S]_B)_ij|=|([S']_B)_ij|=delta_ij$$ is there an orthonormal basis $B''$ of $V$ s.t. $$|([S'circ S]_B'')_ij|=delta_ij ?$$



My principal problem is to understand $|([S]_B)_ij|$, what does it mean ? I know that $[S]_BB$ is a matrix. That $[S]_BB[v]_B$ is a vector, and thus $|[S]_BB[v]_B|=sqrtleft<[S]_BB[v]_B,[S]_BB[v]_Bright>$ make sense (even if not any scalar product is given). But,



1) What would be $([S]_B)_ij$ ?



2) And then, what would be $|([S]_B)_ij|$ ?
