Gassmann equivalence

Subgroups $H_1,H_2$ of a finite group $G$ are Gassmann equivalent if $|H_1\cap C|=|H_2\cap C|$ for every conjugacy class $C$. Equivalently their coset permutation representations have the same character of a representation. They need not be conjugate subgroups. The Sunada theorem turns this equality into equality of Laplacian eigenfunction multiplicities.
