We consider $A \in \mathcal{S}_n(\mathbb{R})$ symmetric with $B = A + \mathbf{u u}^T$ where $\|\mathbf{u}\| = 1$. Let $\lambda$ be an eigenvalue of $A$ with multiplicity $m \geqslant 2$. We set $E = \operatorname{Ker}\left(A - \lambda \mathbb{I}_n\right)$.
(a) Show that $\operatorname{dim}\left(E \cap \{\mathbf{u}\}^\perp\right) \geqslant m - 1$.
(b) Deduce that $\lambda$ is an eigenvalue of $B$ with multiplicity at least $m - 1$.
