Local spectral rigidity of Liouville metrics on the torus

From papers

Let g0g_0 be a Liouville metric on Td\mathbb{T}^d, let rr be the regularity exponent appearing in the CrC^r norm, and let gg be another Riemannian metric. Say that gg is Laplace isospectral to g0g_0 when their Laplace spectra agree. Local spectral-rigidity conjecture. There exists δ>0\delta>0 such that if

g0gCr<δ\|g_0-g\|_{C^r}<\delta

and gg is Laplace isospectral to g0g_0, then gg is isometric to g0g_0. This is proposed as a future nondeformational extension of the paper's rigidity theorem and remains open.
