Strict tessellation characterization of trigonometric Laplace eigenfunctions
Let be a domain in . A complete set of trigonometric eigenfunctions means a complete set of eigenfunctions of the Laplace eigenvalue equation on with Dirichlet boundary condition, each of trigonometric form. A polytope strictly tessellates when its reflected copies form the relevant tessellation; an alcove is such a polytope associated with a crystallographic reflection group.
Strict tessellation conjecture. has a complete set of trigonometric eigenfunctions for the Laplace eigenvalue equation with the Dirichlet boundary condition if and only if is a polytope which strictly tessellates . Equivalently, this holds if and only if is an alcove.
The supplied text presents this as a conjecture related to, but independent of, Fuglede's conjecture. Its resolution is not established by the supplied material.
