Transplantation and isospectrality: algebraic and geometric

Lecture series by David Webb

Workshop on Inverse Spectral Problems

Helsinki, Finland, 1 to 5 September 2003

Sunada's theorem and the accompanying idea of "transplantation" due to Bérard, Buser, and Zelditch have proven very fruitful in constructing examples of isospectral manifolds and hence in understanding what geometric properties are not spectrally determined. We will introduce Sunada's method and transplantation and will survey some of the examples that have arisen from these ideas.
