  We analyse the nonconforming Virtual Element Method (VEM) for the
approximation of elliptic eigenvalue problems. The nonconforming VEM allow to
treat in the same formulation the two- and three-dimensional case.We present
two possible formulations of the discrete problem, derived respectively by the
nonstabilized and stabilized approximation of the L^2-inner product, and we
study the convergence properties of the corresponding discrete eigenvalue
problem. The proposed schemes provide a correct approximation of the spectrum,
in particular we prove optimal-order error estimates for the eigenfunctions and
the usual double order of convergence of the eigenvalues. Finally we show a
large set of numerical tests supporting the theoretical results, including a
comparison with the conforming Virtual Element choice.
