Abstract:
A Riemannian metric $g$ on a compact boundaryless manifold is said to be locally audible if the following statement is true for every metric $g'$ sufficiently close to $g$: if $g$ and $g'$ are isospectral then they are isometric. The local audibility is proved of a metric of constant negative sectional curvature.
Keywords:spectral geometry, Riemannian manifold of negative sectional curvature.
