Would you please help me solve this? I need all the $z$ that satisfy the equality



$$(1+i)z^4=(1-i)|z|^2.$$



I tried doing this:



$$
beginaligned
(1+i)z^4&= (1-i)zoverline z\
(1+i)z^4 -(1-i)zoverline z &= 0\
z[(1+i)z^3-(1-i)overline z]&= 0
endaligned
$$



Then $z= 0$ and
$$(1+i)z^3-(1-i)overline z= 0.$$



I don't know what to do with $overline z$.

    Consider the absolute value of both sides, then you can easily see that $z$ must be uni-modular or zero. That is $|z|=0, 1.$ Than take $z=costheta+isintheta$ and substitute to your equation to find particular conditions on $theta.$

Hint



$$(1+i)z^4=(1-i)|z|^2iff z^4=dfrac1-i1+i|z|^2=-i|z|^2.$$



Taking modulus we have $|z|=0$ or $|z|=1.$ In the first case it is $z=0.$ In the second case $z=e^itheta.$ So, we have



$$cos (4theta)+isin(4theta)=-i.$$ That is, we have to solve



begincasescos(4theta)=0\sin(4theta)=-1endcases

  • $z^4=-i|z|^2implies |z|^4=|z^4|=|-i|z|^2|=|-i||z|^2=|z|^2implies |z|^4=|z|^2.$

    There is an easier way to solve $e^4itheta=-i$. Just use $e^4itheta=e^3pi i/2+2kpi i$, or $4itheta=3pi/2 i+2kpi i$.
