For the linear transformation of matrix transposing, find its matrix representation A = AS S with respect to this basis.

To find the matrix representation \( A \) of the linear transformation that transposes matrices, with respect to the given basis, we need to express how the transpose operation acts on each of the basis matrices. The basis \( S \) consists of four \( 2 \times 2 \) matrices:

\[
S = \left\{ \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix} \right\}.
\]

### Step-by-Step Process:
1. **Identify the Basis Matrices:**
   Let these basis matrices be labeled as \( B_1, B_2, B_3, B_4 \):
   \[
   B_1 = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}, 
   B_2 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}, 
   B_3 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}, 
   B_4 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix}.
   \]

2. **Apply the Transpose Operation:**
   The transpose of each matrix will produce:
   \[
   B_1^T = B_1, \quad B_2^T = B_3, \quad B_3^T = B_2, \quad B_4^T = B_4.
   \]

3. **Express the Results in the Given Basis:**
   We express each transposed matrix as a linear combination of the basis matrices \( B_1, B_2, B_3, B_4 \):
   - \( B_1^T = 1 \cdot B_1 \)
   - \( B_2^T = 1 \cdot B_3 \)
   - \( B_3^T = 1 \cdot B_2 \)
   - \( B_4^T = 1 \cdot B_4 \)

4. **Construct the Matrix Representation \( A \):**
   The matrix representation of the linear transformation with respect to the basis \( S \) is constructed by writing the coefficients from the linear combinations in a matrix. Each column of the matrix represents the result of applying the transpose operation to one of the basis matrices, expressed in the basis \( S \).

   Therefore, the matrix \( A \) will be:
   \[
   A = \begin{pmatrix} 
   1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
   0 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\
   0 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\
   0 & 0 & 0 & 1 
   \end{pmatrix}.
   \]

This matrix \( A \) represents the linear transformation of transposing a \( 2 \times 2 \) matrix in the given basis \( S \).
