Abstract

Green functions for sub-Laplacian on the domains in the Heisenberg group are derived, which can be used to solve partial differential equations subject to specific initial conditions or boundary conditions. Then the integral formulas for sub-Laplace equation on characteristic and non-characteristic half spaces are given, respectively.
