Abstract

Let M be a compact Riemannian manifold equipped with Laplace–Beltrami operator Δ. We use the Rademacher-Menchoff theorem and the asymptotics of the eigenvalues of Δ to show that if a function belongs to an L2 Sobolev space of positive index then its expansion, in terms of eigenfunctions of Δ, converges almost everywhere on M.
