The general goal of the paper under review is the explicit construction of suitable barrier functions for the Pucci-Heisenberg operators. By virtue of these barriers, the authors obtain continuity up to the boundary for the viscosity solutions of fully non-linear Dirichlet problems on the Heisenberg group, assuming the boundary of the domain satisfies some regularity geometrical assumptions (e.g., an exterior Heisenberg-ball condition at the characteristic points).
