When we transpose a (1,1) tensor, shall we simply switch the two indices while keeping their upper/lower positions or switch them and also switch their upper/lower positions? In general, would the left/right order matter for a tensor? Is it true that in contracting indices between two tensors, we want the contracted index to be right close to each other?
