Abstract: The well known Weyl's Law (Weyl's asymptotic formula) gives an approximation to the number $mathcal{N}_{omega}$ of eigenvalues (counted with multiplicities) on a large interval $[0,>omega]$ of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a compact Riemannian manifold $$. In this paper we prove a kind of a weak version of the Weyl's law on certain compact metric measure spaces $$ which are equipped with a self-adjoint non-negative operator $mathcalL$ acting in $$. Roughly speaking, we show that if a certain Poincar'e inequality holds then $mathcal{N}_{omega}$ is controlled by the cardinality of an appropriate cover $$ of $$ by balls of radius $omeg{a}^{-1/2}$. Moreover, an opposite inequality holds if the heat kernel that corresponds to $mathcalL$ satisfies short time Gaussian estimates. It is known that in the case of the so-called strongly local regular with a complete intrinsic metric Dirichlet spaces the Poincar'e inequality holds iff the corresponding heat kernel satisfies short time Gaussian estimates. Thus for such spaces one obtains that $mathcal{N}_{omega}$ is essentially equivalent to the cardinality of a cover $mathcal{B}_{omeg{a}^{-1/2}}$.

Review text

Let us assume that \(M\) is a compact Riemannian manifold. Weyl's asymptotic formula tells us that the number \(N_\omega\) of eigenvalues (counted with multiplicities) of the Laplace-Beltrami operator in the interval \([0,\omega]\) behaves as follows: \[ N_\omega\sim C\mathrm{Vol}(M)\omega^{\dim(M)/2} \] for large \(\omega\). As in this setting balls of the same small radius have roughly the same volume, denoting by \(M_{\omega^{-1/2}}\) the set of centers of balls with radius~\(\omega^{-1/2}\) forming kind of an optimal cover, we have \[ C_1\mathrm{card}(M_{\omega^{-1/2}})\leq N_\omega \leq C_2\mathrm{card}(M_{\omega^{-1/2}}).\tag{Weyl} \] This inequality is the main object of study in the paper under review. The setting is that of a compact metric measure space \((X,d,\mu)\) with some further assumptions. Instead of the Laplace-Beltrami operator, a more general class of operators is studied. Namely non-negative symmetric operators. The main part of the paper is the proof of an estimate similar to (Weyl) in this setting. It splits into the proof of the two corresponding inequalities. The paper further devotes two sections to examples satisfying the assumptions of the theorem: Dirichlet spaces and compact homogeneous sub-Riemannian manifolds.
