End of Lemma.
The proof of Lemma 2.1 is straightforward from Lemma 1.6 as soon as we specialize G r =I 2 .Of
special interest is the right eigenspace analysis. Here, the right Frobenius matrix F r is orthonor-
mal. As an orthonormal matrix (also called “proper rotation matrix”), it can be parameterized
by a rotation angle ϕ . Such an angle of rotation orientates the right eigenvectors

f 1 , f 2 |O}

with respect to
. Indeed, the “ tan2 ϕ identity” leads to an easy
computation of the orientation of the right eigenvectors. We proceed to a short example.
