Sorting complex array with cplxpair and how to get the sort index?

I have a vector of complex numbers, which I sort using cplxpair to get the complex conjugates in ordered pair. But now I need to know the index with respect to the orginal vector.
For example,
I have,
k = [
0.0000 - 0.9998i
0.0000 - 0.9995i
0.0000 + 0.9998i
0.0000 + 0.9995i
-0.0001 - 0.9491i
0.0000 + 0.9995i
0.0000 - 0.9995i
-0.0001 + 0.9491i
]
I use cplxpair(k) and I get,
kp = [
-0.0001 - 0.9491i
-0.0001 + 0.9491i
0.0000 - 0.9998i
0.0000 + 0.9998i
0.0000 - 0.9995i
0.0000 + 0.9995i
0.0000 - 0.9995i
0.0000 + 0.9995i
]
But I need to know how to get the index of 'kp' relating to that of 'k'.

ismember() might be what you're looking for. Do you care about how this works if the elements of k are not all unique?
k = [
0.0000 - 0.9998*1i
0.0000 - 0.9995*1i
0.0000 + 0.9998*1i
0.0000 + 0.9995*1i
-0.0001 - 0.9491*1i
0.0000 + 0.9995*1i
0.0000 - 0.9995*1i
-0.0001 + 0.9491*1i];
kp = cplxpair(k);
[~,ind] = ismember(k,kp);
[kp(ind) k]
isequal(kp(ind),k)
Note that k contained duplicate values, so ind is not just a shuffle of 1:8
sort(ind).'
