the question whether a domain's Laplacian spectrum determines its shape, later answered negatively with isospectral but non-congruent domains.

In spectral theory, hearing the shape of a drum refers to the question whether a domain's Laplacian spectrum determines its shape, later answered negatively with isospectral but non-congruent domains. This meaning comes from Kac (1966) in The American Mathematical Monthly.[1]
