The eigenvalues of the inverse of a nonsingular matrix are the reciprocals of the eigenvalues.

If $A$ is invertible and $Av=\lambda v$, then $\lambda\ne0$ and $A^{-1}v=\lambda^{-1}v$. Multiply the eigenvector equation by $A^{-1}$. Thus inverse eigenvalues are reciprocals, with the same eigenvectors.
