Sum of the cube roots of unity is zero. 

1+ \omega +\omega^{2}= 0

\begin{vmatrix} 1 &i-\omega &\omega^{2} \\ 1-i&-1 &\omega^{2}-1 \\ -i&-i+\omega+1 &-1 \end{vmatrix}

1(1+i\omega^{2}-1+ \omega^{^{2}}-i +\omega-1) - (i-\omega)(-1+i+i\omega^{2}-1) +\omega^{2}[(1-i)(-i+\omega-1)-i]

On simplifying, the result will be zero
