# BVBiorthonormalizeColumn

Bi-orthonormalize a column of two BV objects.

### Synopsis

    #include "slepcbv.h"
    PetscErrorCode BVBiorthonormalizeColumn(BV V,BV W,PetscInt j,PetscReal *delta)

Collective

### Input Parameters

| V | - first basis vectors context
| W | - second basis vectors context
| j | - index of column to be bi-orthonormalized

### Output Parameters

| delta | - (optional) value used for normalization

### Notes

This function first bi-orthogonalizes vectors V[j],W[j] against W[0..j-1], and V[0..j-1], respectively. Then, it scales the vectors with 1/delta, so that the resulting vectors satisfy W[j]'*V[j] = 1.
