orthonormal basis of eigenvectors for laplacian on a concave polygon
I am interested in the Laplace operator $\Delta$ on a concave polygon.
When the polygon is convex, it is known that $\Delta: H^2(\Omega) \rightarrow L^2(\Omega)$
is boundedly invertible. In addition, ...

A basic question about the Spectral Theorem
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open region in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\phi_i $ be the eigenfunctions of $-\Delta$ with Dirichlet boundary condition, i.e.
$$-\Delta \phi_i=\lambda_i \phi_i, \ \ \phi_i|_{\...
