Bialy's conjecture on spectral rigidity among ellipses
Bialy's conjecture on spectral rigidity among ellipses
Let and be two distinct rotation numbers in . For ellipses and , let denote the Mather beta function at rotation number . Bialy's conjecture. If
then and are the same up to isometries. This conjecture asks whether two values of Mather's beta function determine an ellipse up to isometry; the source gives no resolution, so the conjecture remains open.
