Abstract

Let $\mu$ be a Radon measure on the nth Heisenberg group ${\mathbb{H}}^n$. In this note we prove that if the $(2n+1)$-dimensional (Heisenberg) Riesz transform on ${\mathbb{H}}^n$ is $L^2(\mu)$-bounded, and if $\mu(F)=0$ for all Borel sets with ${\text{dim}}_H(F)\leq 2$, then $\mu$ must have $(2n+1)$-polynomial growth. This is the Heisenberg counterpart of a result of Guy David from [Dav91].
