Representation and Laplacian on the Heisenberg group
Let $\pi_{\lambda}$ be the the Schrödinger representations of the Heisenberg group $H=\mathbb C\times \mathbb R$. For $\varphi\in L^2(\mathbb R)$, we have
$$\pi_{\lambda} (z,t)\varphi(\xi)=e^{i\...

Iwasawa decomposition of a non-compact semisimple Lie group?
A (non-compact) symmetric space is of the form $G/K$, where $G$ is a (non-compact) semisimple Lie group defined over $\mathbb{R}$, and $K$ is a maximal compact subgroup of $G$.
Let $M = G/K$ be a rank-...

Check an equation on the Heisenberg group $H_1$
The Heisenberg group $H_1$ is the set $\mathbb C\times \mathbb R$ endowed with the group law
$$ (z,t)\cdot(w,s) =\left (z+w, \,t+s+\tfrac{1}{2}\Im m(z \bar{w})\right); \quad \forall z,w \in \mathbb C\,...

Polynomials of growth for finite Heisenberg groups
Take a standard finite Heisenberg group with two standard generators and let's consider its growth polynomial - the polynomial which coefficients are equal to the sphere sizes.
For example for $H_3(Z/...

Distance distribution for Cayley graphs of the fintie Heisenberg groups H3(Z/nZ) approaches Gaussian for large "n"?
I wonder several questions about Cayley graphs of finite Heisenberg groups H3(Z/nZ).
Question 1: do we know the diameter dependence on "n", at least for the standard choice of generators ? ...

A question about semigroups in a Heisenberg group
I'm trying to understand if the regularity of solutions in Heisenberg groups works like in the Euclidean case. So far I haven't found any results, so I'm trying to check if the Regularity Theorems ...

Sub Laplacian on the quaternion Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$
The sublaplacian is defined by $\mathcal{L}=-\left(X_{0}^{2}+X_{1}^{2}+X_{2}^{2}+X_{3}^{2}\right)$, which is independent of the choice of the orthonormal basis of $\mathbb{H}$. It is well known that ...
