Time-dependent diffusion coefficient as a probe of geometry

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe how the time-dependent diffusion coefficient D(t) of mobile molecules confined in pore or cells carries information about the confining geometry, and the geometrical parameter “tortuosity” α plays an important role in various transport processes in porous media, such as the electrical conductivity.

Acoustic echoes reveal room shape

TL;DR: This work shows how to compute the shape of a convex polyhedral room from its response to a known sound, recorded by a few microphones, and reconstructs the full 3D geometry of the room from a single sound emission, and with an arbitrary geometry ofThe microphone array.

Geometrical structure of Laplacian eigenfunctions

TL;DR: The main focus is put onto multiple intricate relations between the shape of a domain and the geometrical structure of eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator in bounded Euclidean domains with Dirichlet, Neumann or Robin boundary condition.

Can one hear the shape of a graph

TL;DR: In this article, the spectrum of the Schroperator on a finite, metric graph was shown to determine uniquely the connectivity matrix and the bond lengths, provided that the lengths are not commensurate and the connectivity is simple (no parallel bonds between vertices and no loops connecting a vertex to itself).

Eigenmodes of Isospectral Drums

Tobin A. Driscoll
- 15 Mar 1997 - 
TL;DR: An algorithm due to Descloux and Tolley is described that blends singular finite elements with domain decomposition and it is shown that, with a modification that doubles its accuracy, this algorithm can be used to compute efficiently the eigenvalues for polygonal regions.

Can One Hear the Shape of a Drum

TL;DR: Can one hear the shape of a drum? as discussed by the authors, 1966; The American Mathematical Monthly: Vol. 73, No. 4P2, pp. 1-23.

One cannot hear the shape of a drum

TL;DR: In this paper, Sunada's theorem was used to construct a pair of isospectral simply connected domains in the Euclidean plane, thus answering negatively Kac's question, can one hear the shape of a drum?

Some planar isospectral domains

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give a number of examples of two noncongruent isospectral domains in the plane and a particularly simple method of proof that they sound the same.
