They are called involution functions.

All inverses are expressed as:

f-1(f(x)) = x for every x in f(x)'s domain.

Because of their unique property, involution functions are expressed simply as:

f(f(x)) = x for every x in f(x)'s domain.

An easy example is the reciprocal function f(x) = 1/x. If you do that twice, you get x.
