Abstract: In this paper, we determine, in the case of the Laplacian on the flat two-dimensional torus (R/Z) 2 , all the eigenvalues having an eigenfunction which satisfies Courant's theorem with equality (Courant-sharp situation). Following the strategy o A. Pleijel (1956), the proof is a combination of a lower bound a la Weyl) of the counting function, with an explicit remainder term, and of a Faber--Krahn inequality for domains on the torus (deduced as in B{'e}rard-Meyer from an isoperimetric inequality), with an explicit upper bound on the area.
