Spectrum of a flat torus (${\lambda }_w=4{\pi }^2|w{|}^2$)

With the nonnegative Laplace-Beltrami operator, a frequency $w$ in the dual lattice gives the eigenfunction $e^{2\pi i⟨w,x⟩}$ and eigenvalue $4{\pi }^2|w{|}^2$. Its multiplicity is the number of dual vectors with that norm. Fourier series prove completeness. In dimension two the shortest vector, shortest independent vector and covolume determine a reduced Gram matrix, proving spectral rigidity.
