Abstract

We study uniform non-localization for complete Laplace eigenspaces on the equilateral triangle under Dirichlet, Neumann, and Robin boundary conditions, with particular emphasis on stability under Robin perturbations of the Neumann problem. As a stationary reference estimate, we give a self-contained proof that every measurable observation set V⊂ T of positive measure captures a frequency-independent positive proportion of the L2 mass of every vector in every Dirichlet or Neumann eigenspace, even in the presence of arbitrarily large arithmetic multiplicity. The proof unfolds the triangle to a flat torus and combines a two-dimensional Fourier-cluster argument with a Jarník-type lattice lemma. Our principal perturbative result shows that the Neumann estimate persists uniformly for 0≤σ≤σ0 under Robin boundary conditions. McCartin's exact Robin parametrization yields modal-space estimates uniform in the spectral indices, while the small-parameter simplicity theorem of Rudnick and Wigman prevents distinct desymmetrized spectral classes from merging. Finally, for an arbitrary fixed σ>0, we show that bounded coincidence complexity of Robin modal classes is sufficient for uniform eigenspace-level observation via a multivariate Turán--Nazarov inequality. Thus the unconditional small-Robin theorem is separated from the remaining global spectral-complexity question at a general fixed Robin parameter.
