A matrix and its matrix transpose have the same characteristic polynomial, because
Thus they have the same eigenvalues, including algebraic multiplicities.
The proposed sum identity is false. For
both eigenvalues are zero, whereas
has eigenvalues . Hence
Equivalently, the two sides are generally and , which need not agree.
The product identity always holds, since
Therefore
