If ## A, B, ## and ## C## are complex-valued variables, is there an easy way to algebraically solve for ##A## without splitting the variables into their real and imaginary parts? For example:
$$ AB^* = 20AB - A^*C + B^*C^* $$
can be isolated for ##A## but only if the real and imaginary parts are distinguished. That's fine. I am just wondering if there are any other methods to solve for ## A ## in the above equation as only a function of ##B, B^*, C, C^* ## (i.e. not ##A^*##)
$$ AB^* = 20AB - A^*C + B^*C^* $$
