To this end we define various types of isospectrality and establish conditions for their occurrence. The triangle and the tetrahedron whose vertices are occupied by spin 1/2 are investigated in some detail. The problem is also of practical interest since isospectrality presents an obstacle to the experimental determination of the coupling constants of small interacting spin systems such as magnetic molecules. |
