Short summary
To enforce the continuity of transverse electric and magnetic fields at boundaries, rectangular matrices containing the field distribution ('right eigenvectors') have to be inverted. This can be done with left eigenvectors. Here, it is shown how the latter ones can be determined with simple matrix products from previously determined right eigenvectors. For this purpose the relation between the transverse electric and magnetic fields known from Maxwell's equations is utilized.
