We expose explicit calculations of the spectra of the Laplace operators for smooth real or complex functions on all connected compact simple Lie groups of rank 3 with bi-invariant Riemannian metric and establish the relationship of the obtained formulas with number theory and integer-valued ternary and binary quadratic forms.
