We are given a matrix $S \in \mathbf{S}_n$, an angle $\theta \in \left]-\frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right[$ and integers $1 \leqslant p < q \leqslant n$ such that $s_{pq} \neq 0$. We define $S' = {}^t R_{p,q}(\theta) S R_{p,q}(\theta)$ and denote its coefficients by $s_{ij}'$.
Express the coefficients $s_{ij}'$ of $S'$ in terms of those of $S$.
