[1, p. 35 exercise 2.14] we are asked to consider the solution to the set of linear equations
where

is a

hermitian matrix given by:
and

is a complex

vector given by
The complex vectors are defined in
[1, p.22, (2.27)]. Furthermore we are asked to assumed that

vector.
It is requested to show that

is a singular matrix (assuming

) and that there are infinite number of solutions.
A further task is to find the general solution and also the minimum norm solution of the set of linear equations. The
hint provided by the exercise is to note that

are eigenvectors of

with nonzero eigenvalues and then to assume a solution of the form
where

for

and solve for
