Sep 11, 2021 at 19:55 comment added Deane Yang @TerryTao, yes. When I said $C$ depends on $g_1$, I did have the reciprocal of the spectral gap in mind. But I see that I should say that $C$ depends on $g_1$ and $\lambda_1$.
Sep 11, 2021 at 19:48 comment added Terry Tao The constant $C$ here will also depend on the invertibility of $-\Delta_1 + \lambda_1$ on the orthogonal complement of the kernel, hence depends on the spectral gap between $\lambda_1$ and the other eigenvalues of $-\Delta_1$. This is necessary, since if there were two eigenvalues $\lambda_1, \lambda'_1$ of $-\Delta_1$ close to $\lambda_2$ then your estimate would also imply that a $\lambda_1$-eigenfunction is close to a $\lambda'_1$-eigenfunction, contradicting orthogonality.
