Abstract
A conjecture of Fuglede states that a bounded measurable set in space, of measure 1, can tile space by translations if and only if the Hilbert space has an orthonormal basis consisting of exponentials. If 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.
