A pseudo-differential calculus on the Heisenberg group

In this note we present a symbolic pseudo-differential calculus on the Heisenberg group. We particularise to this group our general construction [4,2,3] of pseudo-differential calculi on graded groups. The relation between the Weyl quantisation and the representations of the Heisenberg group enables us to consider here scalar-valued symbols. We find that the conditions defining the symbol classes are similar but different to the ones in [1]. Applications are given to Schwartz hypoellipticity and to subelliptic estimates on the Heisenberg group. (C) 2014 Academie des sciences. Published by Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
