The shifted matrix is still a normal matrix, since
and has the same expansion except that its first term is , which equals . For the given eigenvector, . Part (b), applied to , therefore gives . Since ,
The corresponding eigenvalue of the Hermitian conjugate is the complex conjugate of the original eigenvalue.
