May 26, 2013 at 9:40 comment added Qiaochu Yuan It's better not to use the term "scalar product" at all. The first thing is a real inner product and the second thing is a complex inner product. If you want to refer to the first thing where the $a_i$ and $b_i$ are complex, call it a symmetric bilinear form.
