Connection with sesquilinear form

A semilinear transformation for the special case of a vector space to its dual T : V → V^∗ : v ↦ T(v) induces a sesquilinear form S : V × V → K : (v, w) ↦ T(v)(w). Conversely, every sesquilinear form naturally induces two semilinear maps, just as a bilinear form naturally induces two linear maps. If this can be sourced, it would seem natural to include it in the article. —Quondum 01:47, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
