Some model theory of the Heisenberg group
We show that a field $K$ is model complete (in the language of rings) if and only if the Heisenberg group $H(K)$ is model complete (in the language of groups). To show that, we extend Levchuk's result about automorphisms of $H(K)$ to the case of monomorphisms $H(K)\to H(M)$. We also show that $H(K)$ does not have quantifier elimination and discuss its (non-)bi-interpretability with $K$.
