Abstract

Let $\mathbb H^{2n+1}$ be the $(2n+1)$-dimensional Heisenberg group equipped with a left-invariant metric. In this paper we study the Gaussian curvatures of the geodesic spheres and the volumes of geodesic balls in $\mathbb H^{2n+1}.$

Keywords: Heisenberg group, geodesic sphere, geodesic ball
