In this paper we prove the "Tiling implies Spectral" part of Fuglede's paper for the case of three intervals. Then we prove the "Spectral implies Tiling" part of the conjecture for the case of three equal intervals as also when the…
We prove that a union of two intervals in R is a spectral set if and only if it tiles R by translations.
We show that the spectral-tile implication in the Fuglede conjecture in dimension 1 is equivalent to a Universal Tiling Conjecture and also to similar forms of the same implication for some simpler sets, such as unions of intervals with…
We consider two number-theoretic problems arising from Fuglede's spectral set conjecture: characterizing finite sets that tile integers, and finding polynomials with (0,1) coefficients whose roots have a certain multiplicative structure. We…
We study tiling and spectral sets in vector spaces over prime fields. The classical Fuglede conjecture in locally compact abelian groups says that a set is spectral if and only if it tiles by translation. This conjecture was disproved by T.…
The notion of weak tiling played a key role in the proof of Fuglede's spectral set conjecture for convex domains, due to the fact that every spectral set must weakly tile its complement. In this paper, we revisit the notion of weak tiling…
Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a set of finite measure. The periodic tiling conjecture suggests that if $\Omega$ tiles $\mathbb{R}^d$ by translations then it admits at least one periodic tiling. Fuglede's conjecture suggests that…
The spectral set conjecture, also known as the Fuglede conjecture, asserts that every bounded spectral set is a tile and vice versa. While this conjecture remains open on ${\mathbb R}^1$, there are many results in the literature that…
We investigate tiling properties of spectra of measures, i.e., sets $\Lambda$ in $\br$ such that $\{e^{2\pi i \lambda x}: \lambda\in\Lambda\}$ forms an orthogonal basis in $L^2(\mu)$, where $\mu$ is some finite Borel measure on $\br$. Such…
A set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is said to be spectral if the space $L^2(\Omega)$ has an orthogonal basis of exponential functions. A conjecture due to Fuglede (1974) stated that $\Omega$ is a spectral set if and only if it can tile the…
The Fuglede conjecture states that a set is spectral if and only if it tiles by translation. The conjecture was disproved by T. Tao for dimensions 5 and higher by giving a counterexample in $\mathbb{Z}_3^5$. We present a computer program…
A set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is said to be spectral if the space $L^2(\Omega)$ has an orthogonal basis of exponential functions. It is well-known that in many respects, spectral sets "behave like" sets which can tile the space by…
Let $\Omega$ be a convex polytope in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We say that $\Omega$ is spectral if the space $L^2(\Omega)$ admits an orthogonal basis consisting of exponential functions. There is a conjecture, which goes back to Fuglede (1974), that…
We study spectral theory for bounded Borel subsets of $\br$ and in particular finite unions of intervals. For Hilbert space, we take $L^2$ of the union of the intervals. This yields a boundary value problem arising from the minimal operator…
A set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is said to be spectral if the space $L^2(\Omega)$ admits an orthogonal basis of exponential functions. Fuglede (1974) conjectured that $\Omega$ is spectral if and only if it can tile the space by…
For p=5,7, we show that a subset \(E \subset \F_p^3\) is spectral if and only if E tiles \(\F_p^3\) by translation. Additionally, we give an alternate proof that the conjecture holds for p=3.
We show that given any tiling of Euclidean space, any geometric patterns of points, we can find a patch of tiles (of arbitrarily large size) so that copies of this patch appear in the tiling nearly centered on a scaled and translated…
Fuglede's conjecture states that a subset $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}$ of positive and finite Lebesgue measure is a spectral set if and only if it tiles $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ by translation. The conjecture does not hold in both directions for…
A spectral set in R^n is a set X of finite Lebesgue measure such that L^2(X) has an orthogonal basis of exponentials. It is conjectured that every spectral set tiles R^n by translations. A set of translations T has a universal spectrum if…
In this paper we study spectral sets which are unions of finitely many intervals in R. We show that any spectrum associated with such a spectral set is periodic, with the period an integral multiple of the measure of the set. As a…
