 Compact elliptic spectral theorem

On a closed manifold with a Riemannian metric the positive Laplace-Beltrami operator is self-adjoint with compact resolvent. It has a complete smooth orthonormal eigenbasis, finite-dimensional eigenspaces, nonnegative eigenvalues tending to infinity, and polynomial eigenvalue-counting bounds. Elliptic regularity bounds derivatives of its eigenfunctions polynomially in their eigenvalues.
