33: 116:.) In a seminal paper in 2009, Zelditch showed that one can recover the shape of a convex, analytic planar domain with up-down symmetries from its Laplace spectrum. In 2019, with his coauthor, Zelditch showed that ellipses of small eccentricity are spectrally determined amongst all smooth, convex planar domains. Among Zelditch's other research topics are 449:

In a famous paper, Zelditch applied semiclassical methods to complex algebraic geometry with the semiclassical parameter playing the role of the reciprocal power of an 106:, equidistribution of eigenfunctions in billiard geometries, quantum ergodic restriction theorems to separating hypersurfaces). He has also done research on the inverse spectral problem. (This problem is described in 132:. The Tian-Yau-Zelditch theorem in this case gives a complete asymptotic expansion of the Bergman kernel near the diagonal. For example, the Catlin-De Angelo-Quillen theorem easily follows from this. 519: 231:
