Strong Pólya–Szegő conjecture for finite spectral determination of regular polygons

Let n3n\geq 3, let Ω\Omega be a convex nn-gon, and let PP be a regular nn-gon. Write λi(Ω)\lambda_i(\Omega) for the iith eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian on Ω\Omega, and let N=N(n)N=N(n) be the integer from Theorem 3. Strong Pólya–Szegő conjecture. The number N=N(n)N=N(n) in Theorem 3 may be taken equal to 11; equivalently, if the first eigenvalue of a convex nn-gon coincides with that of a regular nn-gon, then the convex nn-gon is congruent to that regular nn-gon. The preceding theorem establishes finite spectral determination for some N(n)N(n) without an area-normalization assumption. The conjecture strengthens the area-constrained Pólya–Szegő conjecture, and the source gives no resolution.
