Question

 Let P=-302056901401121206014 and A=27ω2-1-ω10-ω-ω+1 where ω=-1+i32, and I3 be the  identity matrix of order 3 . If the determinant of the matrix P-1AP-I32 is αω2, then the  value of α is equal to 

Difficult
Solution

P-1AP-I2=P-1AP-P-1P2=P-1(A-I)P2=P-12|A-I|2|P|2  =|A-I|2

                               AI=17ω21ω110ωω                                                                    =17ω20ω61+ω20ωω                 ·R2R2+R1                              =ωω+6+ω1+ω2                        =ω1+ω2+ω+6=6ωAI2=36ω2
