IMC 2024 Problem 7

    Let nn be a positive integer. Suppose that AA and BB are invertible n×nn \times n matrices with complex entries such that A+B=IA+B=I (where II is the identity matrix) and (A2+B2)(A4+B4)=A5+B5.(A^2+B^2)(A^4+B^4)=A^5+B^5. Find all possible values of det⁡(AB)\det(AB) for the given nn .
