Abstract: In this paper we study the set of points, in the plane, defined by $\{(x,y)=(\lambda_1(\Omega),\lambda_2(\Omega)),\ |\Omega|=1\},$ where $(\lambda_1(\Omega),\lambda_2(\Omega))$ are either the two first eigenvalues of the Dirichlet-Laplacian, or the two first non trivial eigenvalues of the Neumann-Laplacian. We consider the case of general open sets together with the case of convex open domains. We give some qualitative properties of these sets, show some pictures obtained through numerical computations and state several open problems.
