The connection between

is
Notes:
Consider , then we have
where . Since
and
, we obtain
Hence, we find that
which implies

Condition
guarantees that
.
Notes:
Taking be eigensystem of
on
, we have
which is just the required estimation.
Here, in this part, we may see (
) and
, which coincides with formula (3.3) and (3.4) on page 10. Taking
in the first formula on page 12, we have
Question: The operator is a self-adjoint elliptic operator with smooth coefficients (defined on closed manifold), the eigenvalues are irrelevant to the definition function space of the operator
?
Proof of Lemma 3, Page 15
and we can write
Notes:
Here, we assume that . By my understanding, the equality means that for
we have
Since , we obtain
and
holds for every . Because for any
, we can deduce that the corresponding
is continuous. Hence, we find that
holds on for any
. That is to say,
holds on space , which implies
