We consider the optimization problem of maximizing the k-th Laplacian eigenvalue, λₖ, over flat d-dimensional tori of fixed volume. For k=1, this problem is equivalent to the densest lattice sphere packing problem. For larger k, this is equivalent to the NP-hard problem of finding the d-dimensional (dual) lattice with longest k-th shortest lattice vector. As a result of extensive computations, for d ≤8, we obtain a sequence of flat tori, T_(k,d), each of volume one, such that the k-th Laplacian eigenvalue of T_(k,d) is very large; for each (finite) k the k-th eigenvalue exceeds the value in (the k→∞ asymptotic) Weyl's law by a factor between 1.54 and 2.01, depending on the dimension. Stationarity conditions are derived and numerically verified for T_(k,d) and we describe the degeneration of the tori as k →∞.
