Given a compact Lie group G and a closed subgroup H, the dimension datum of H is the map DH : (G) over cap -> Z which assigns to each irreducible complex linear representation W of G the dimension of W-H, the subspace of H- invariant vectors. We prove that as a subspace of Z((G) over cap) the set consisting of dimension data of closed subgroups of G is compact. We obtain new proofs of some previously known finiteness and rigidity results and we give an application to spectral geometry.
