How to prove that there exist a unique operator $T:Vto V$ such that



$$f(x,y)=g(Tx,y)$$



where $f$ is any bilinear form and $g$ is a non-degenerate bilinear form, and $V$ is a finite dimensional space.



I proved the uniqueness but I dont know how to prove the existence.

Hint: fixing a basis for $V$, it suffices to work over $mathbb{R}^n$. Note that there exist matrices $A$ and $B$ such that
$$ f(x,y) = x^top cdot A cdot y qquad text{and} qquad g(x,y) = x^top B cdot y.$$
Now show there exists a matrix $T$ such that $T^top B = A$.

    $begingroup$

    The form $g$ defines an isomorphism $hat{g}colon Vto V^*$ by setting
    $$
    hat{g}(x)colon ymapsto g(x,y)
    $$
    Similarly, $f$ defines a linear map $hat{f}colon Vto V^*$ by $hat{f}(x)(y)=f(x,y)$.



    Then we get $Tcolon Vto V$, $T=hat{g}^{-1}circhat{f}$, which is the same as saying that $hat{g}circ T=hat{f}$. In particular, for every $xin V$, we have
    $$
    hat{f}(x)=hat{g}circ T(x)=hat{g}(T(x))
    $$
    and therefore, for every $yin V$,
    $$
    hat{f}(x)(y)=hat{g}circ T(x)=hat{g}(Tx)(y)
    $$
    which is the same as saying that $f(x,y)=g(Tx,y)$.




    How do we prove that $hat{g}$ is an isomorphism? Since $V$ is finite dimensional, it is sufficient to show it is injective. If $hat{g}(x)=0$, then $g(x,y)=0$, for every $yin V$. Being $g$ nondegenerate, this implies $x=0$.

              $$

Suppose our lazy professor collects a quiz and a homework assignment from a class of n students one day, then distributes both the quizzes and the homework assignments back to the class in a random fashion for grading. Each student receives one quiz and one homework assignment to grade. (a) What is the probability that every student receives someone else's quiz to grade, and someone else's homework to grade? (b) What is the probability that no student receives both their own quiz and their own homework assignment to grade? In this case, some students may receive their own quiz, and others may receive their own homework assignment. (c) Compute the limiting probability as n approaches infinity in each case. ...
