Given a square matrix (representing a bilinear form) over a commutative ring , a -orthogonal matrix is any square matrix of the same size over such that
where is the transpose matrix of .
Most often one considers a case when is diagonal. For one recovers the notion of an orthogonal matrix.
All J-orthogonal matrices over the ground field form an algebraic group denoted or or alike; in real or complex case a Lie group. The matrices in the Lie algebra are J-skew-symmetric, .
