Abstract

We propose a simple embedding method for computing the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on implicit surfaces. The approach follows an embedding approach for solving the surface eikonal equation. We replace the differential operator on the interface with a typical Cartesian differential operator in the surface neighborhood. Our proposed algorithm is easy to implement and efficient. We will give some two- and three-dimensional numerical examples to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed approach.
