Abstract: We find the Courant-sharp Neumann eigenvalues of the Laplacian on some 2-rep-tile domains. In $R^2$ the domains we consider are the isosceles right triangle and the rectangle with edge ratio $sqrt2$ (also known as the A4 paper). In $R^n$ the domains are boxes which generalize the mentioned planar rectangle. The symmetries of those domains reveal a special structure of their eigenfunctions, which we call folding extbackslash{}unfolding. This structure affects the nodal set of the eigenfunctions, which in turn allows to derive necessary conditions for Courant-sharpness. In addition, the eigenvalues of these domains are arranged as a lattice which allows for a comparison between the nodal count and the spectral position. The Courant-sharpness of most eigenvalues is ruled out using those methods. In addition, this analysis allows to estimate the nodal deficiency - the difference between the spectral position and the nodal count.
