Abstract: A conjecture of Fuglede states that a bounded measurable set Omega in space, of measure 1, can tile space by translations if and only if the Hilbert space L2(Omega) has an orthonormal basis consisting of exponentials. If Omega has the latter property it is called spectral. We generalize a result of Fuglede, that a triangle in the plane is not spectral, proving that every non-symmetric convex domain is not spectral.


Here the author discusses a conjecture of \textit{B. Fuglede} [J. Funct. Anal. 16, 101-121 (1974; Zbl 0279.47014)] on a necessary and sufficient condition for a bounded subset \(\Omega\) of \(\mathbb{R}^d\), of measure 1, to tile \(\mathbb{R}^d\) by translation. In that connection among other things, he proves that a convex, non-symmetric, bounded open subset \(\Omega\) of measure 1, of \(\mathbb{R}^d\) is not spectral. This theorem then generalizes a corresponding result of Fuglede for a triangle in \(\mathbb{R}^2\).
