Ultradistribution characterisation conjecture for the sub-Laplacian on the Heisenberg group

Let Hn\mathbb H_n be the Heisenberg group, let γX,L2s(Hn)\gamma^{s}_{\mathbf{X},L^2}(\mathbb H_n) and γX,L2(s)(Hn)\gamma^{(s)}_{\mathbf{X},L^2}(\mathbb H_n) be the corresponding sub-Laplacian Gevrey spaces, and let uu and vv be ultradistributions with group Fourier transforms u^(λ)\widehat u(\lambda) and v^(λ)\widehat v(\lambda). For λR{0}\lambda\in\mathbb R\setminus\{0\}, write πλ(L)\pi_\lambda(\mathcal L) for the infinitesimal representation of the sub-Laplacian, and let HS\|\cdot\|_{\operatorname{HS}} denote the Hilbert–Schmidt norm. Ultradistribution characterisation conjecture. For 1s<1\leq s<\infty, u(γX,L2s(Hn))u\in(\gamma^{s}_{\mathbf{X},L^2}(\mathbb H_n))' if and only if, for every B>0B>0,

R{0}eBπλ(L)12su^(λ)HSλndλ<.\int_{\mathbb R\setminus\{0\}}\|e^{-B\pi_\lambda(\mathcal L)^{\frac{1}{2s}}}\widehat u(\lambda)\|_{\operatorname{HS}}|\lambda|^n\,d\lambda<\infty.

Moreover, v(γX,L2(s)(Hn))v\in(\gamma^{(s)}_{\mathbf{X},L^2}(\mathbb H_n))' if and only if there exists B>0B>0 such that

R{0}eBπλ(L)12sv^(λ)HSλndλ<.\int_{\mathbb R\setminus\{0\}}\|e^{-B\pi_\lambda(\mathcal L)^{\frac{1}{2s}}}\widehat v(\lambda)\|_{\operatorname{HS}}|\lambda|^n\,d\lambda<\infty.

The statement is presented as an analogous Heisenberg-group characterisation based on the preceding Gevrey-space theorem; the source does not provide a proof, so its resolution remains open.
