To find the eigenvalues you need to compute,
is the indentity matrix of dimension 2. So on solving this we get
an algebric equation (quadratic equation) in
,
Now solving for
we get,
Now to compute the eigenvectors one needs to plug in
into
Solving for
will lead to pair of linear equations which on solving will lead to
two different pairs of values of
which leads to the eigenvectors. They are,
Now, for the spin polarisation part,
