An introduction to Heisenberg groups in analysis and geometry. (English) Zbl 1050.22012
Various aspects of the general Heisenberg group theory, in discrete and continuous versions, and “the ways in which their algebraic structure is reflected in Fourier analysis, complex analysis and geometry” are discussed. In the paper, the following topics are considered: commutators of multiplication and differentiation operators, some groups of linear operators, definition of the $$n$$-th Heisenberg group, discrete versions of the Heisenberg groups, connections with several complex variables, tube domains and spaces of holomorphic functions on them, some geometric aspects.
