Questions where the equation involves the conjugate or modulus of z alongside z itself (e.g., z² = z̄), requiring the solver to decompose into real and imaginary parts.
For a complex number $z$, let $\operatorname{Re}(z)$ denote the real part of $z$. Let $S$ be the set of all complex numbers $z$ satisfying $z^{4} - |z|^{4} = 4iz^{2}$, where $i = \sqrt{-1}$. Then the minimum possible value of $|z_{1} - z_{2}|^{2}$, where $z_{1}, z_{2} \in S$ with $\operatorname{Re}(z_{1}) > 0$ and $\operatorname{Re}(z_{2}) < 0$, is $\_\_\_\_$
Q62. Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be the sum and the product of all the non-zero solutions of the equation $( \bar { z } ) ^ { 2 } + | z | = 0 , z \in \mathrm { C }$. Then $4 \left( \alpha ^ { 2 } + \beta ^ { 2 } \right)$ is equal to : (1) 6 (2) 8 (3) 2 (4) 4
