Isospectral deformations of closed riemannian manifolds with different scalar curvature

Carolyn S. Gordon, Ruth Gornet, Dorothee Schueth, David L. Webb, Edward N. Wilson (1998)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We construct the first examples of continuous families of isospectral Riemannian metrics that are not locally isometric on closed manifolds , more precisely, on S n × T m , where T m is a torus of dimension m 2 and S n is a sphere of dimension n 4 . These metrics are not locally homogeneous; in particular, the scalar curvature of each metric is nonconstant. For some of the deformations, the maximum scalar curvature changes during the deformation.

Isospectral deformations of the Lagrangian Grassmannians

Jacques Gasqui, Hubert Goldschmidt (2007)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We study the special Lagrangian Grassmannian S U ( n ) / S O ( n ) , with n 3 , and its reduced space, the reduced Lagrangian Grassmannian X . The latter is an irreducible symmetric space of rank n - 1 and is the quotient of the Grassmannian S U ( n ) / S O ( n ) under the action of a cyclic group of isometries of order n . The main result of this paper asserts that the symmetric space X possesses non-trivial infinitesimal isospectral deformations. Thus we obtain the first example of an irreducible symmetric space of arbitrary rank 2 , which is...

Isospectral, non-isometric Riemannian manifolds

Schueth, Dorothea (1994)

Proceedings of the Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

The author gives a survey of the history of isospectral manifolds that are non-isometric discussing the work of Milnor, Vignéras, Sunada, and de Turck and Gordon. She describes the construction of continuous isospectral deformations as introduced by Gordon, Wilson, De Turck et al. She also discusses the construction of isospectral plane domains due to Gordon, Webb, and Wolpert. Some new examples of isospectral non-isometric manifolds are given.

Isospectral Riemann surfaces

Peter Buser (1986)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We construct new examples of compact Riemann surfaces which are non isometric but have the same spectrum of the Laplacian. Examples are given for genus g = 5 and for all g 7 . In a second part we give examples of isospectral non isometric surfaces in R 3 which are realizable by paper models.

Isospectrality for quantum toric integrable systems

Laurent Charles, Álvaro Pelayo, San Vũ Ngoc (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

We give a full description of the semiclassical spectral theory of quantum toric integrable systems using microlocal analysis for Toeplitz operators. This allows us to settle affirmatively the isospectral problem for quantum toric integrable systems: the semiclassical joint spectrum of the system, given by a sequence of commuting Toeplitz operators on a sequence of Hilbert spaces, determines the classical integrable system given by the symplectic manifold and commuting Hamiltonians. This type of...
