Consider the system of equations A(n × n) X(n × 1) = λ(n × 1) where, λ is a scalar. Let (λi, xi) be an eigen-pair of an eigen value and its corresponding eigen vector for real matrix A. Let $$I$$ be a (n × n) unit matrix. Which one of the following statement is NOT correct?

A. For a homogeneous n × n system of linear equations, (A - λ$$I$$)x = 0 having a nontrivial solution, the rank of (A - λ$$I$$) is less than n

B. For matrix Am, m being a positive integer, (λim, xim) will be the eigen-pair for all i

C. If AT = A-1, then |λi| = 1 for all i

D. If AT = A, then λi is real for all i
