Non self-adjoint perturbations of the Heisenberg sublaplacian

Abstract

We prove uniform resolvent estimates in weighted $L^2$-spaces for the sublaplacian $\mathcal{L}$ on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^d$. The proof are based on multiplier methods, and strongly rely on the use of horizontal multipliers and the associated Hardy inequalities. The constants of our inequalities are explicit and depend only on the dimension $d$. As applications of this method, we obtain some suitable smallness and repulsivity conditions on a complex potential $V$ on $\mathbb{H}^d$ such that the spectrum of $\mathcal{L}+V$ does not contain eigenvalues.
