Let $A = \begin{bmatrix} \frac{1}{6} & \frac{-1}{3} & \frac{-1}{6} \\ \frac{-1}{3} & \frac{2}{3} & \frac{1}{3} \\ \frac{-1}{6} & \frac{1}{3} & \frac{1}{6} \end{bmatrix}$. If $A^{2016l} + A^{2017m} + A^{2018n} = \frac{1}{\alpha} A$, for every $l, m, n \in N$, then the value of $\alpha$ is

  • A
    $\frac{1}{6}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{3}$
