The "isospectrality" tag is added.

Jul 27, 2016 at 23:07 comment added Gerry Myerson A websearch for "the sound of symmetry" came up with an EP by the metalcore band Sky Eats Airplane, but also with jstor.org/stable/10.4169/amer.math.monthly.122.9.815 (Lu and Rowlett, Amer Math Monthly 122 (November 2015) 815-835), which, I presume, is what OP had in mind. It might have been better for all, had OP told us what he knew when he first posted the question.

replaced Sharpie's tags with one that seems more appropriate
Jul 27, 2016 at 17:57 comment added Neal @NoamD.Elkies Yes, area and perimeter are (derivable from) coefficients in the heat trace. (One can also get a value derived from angles, see Mazzeo-Rowlette arxiv.org/abs/0901.0019)

Jul 27, 2016 at 16:30 comment added Noam D. Elkies Wasn't there a theorem that both area and perimeter are spectral invariants, whence $P \cong Q$ by the isoperimetric inequality?

Jul 27, 2016 at 13:53 comment added David Labrecque @Neal Thanks for you answer. In fact, the problem isn't open since November 2015 (see Theorem 4, The Sound of Symmetry). I'm trying to prove that problem by myself in using something simpler; that why I wanted some clues. (P.S. Yes, I know the problem of Gordon-Webb-Wolpert. It is convenient to solve that problem before launching into a such problem.)
Jul 27, 2016 at 13:34 comment added Neal Are you familiar with the examples from the 1990s (e.g. Gordon-Webb-Wolpert, Conway, others) constructed of isospectral planar polygons? If you wish to restrict to convex $n$_gons, I believe "isospectral $\Rightarrow$ isometric" is still open for convex domains in general. If $n=3$, it is known (Durso, Hillairet, Grieser-Maronna) that isospectral $\Rightarrow$ isometric.
