Transposing Map on SO(n) matricies Does there exist a matrix X such that we can describe the transposing of an SO(n) matrix R as something like $M \rightarrow XMX^T = M^T$ I am particularly interested in SO(n) in even dimensions, where I think this X could be an improper rotation $(Det(X)=-1)$.

Not in general. First, observe that if we let $M$ be the identity matrix then the identity reduces to $XX^T = I$. In particular, $X \in O(n)$ so $X = X^{-1}$ and thus the map $M \mapsto XMX^T$ is an automorphism of $SO(n)$. But it is also the map $M \mapsto M^T = M^{-1}$ which is an automorphism if and only if a group is Abelian.
